All you need to do in this game is to balance a stack of dice on a popsicle stick held in your mouth. No problem, right?
The Goal
You have one minute to build a tower of six dice on the end of a popsicle stick. The trick here is that the popsicle stick must be held in your mouth.
Equipment Needed
- Playing dice of equal size and shape (at least six, but preferably more)
- One popsicle stick
How to Play
Begin the game by placing the popsicle stick in your mouth. Then start the clock. Using your hands, begin building a tower of dice, one by one, on the end of the stick. To win this game, you must have a vertical stack of six dice on the end of the stick, and it must be freestanding, all within one minute.
The Rules
- You cannot use your face to hold the tower of dice upright.
- If you drop any or all of the dice, use replacements from the table rather than stooping to pick them up.
Tips and Tricks
Try to rely on your sense of touch to align the dice rather than sight. Watching the stick that reaches just past the end of your nose will give you vision problems that can result in misalignment.
