'Minute to Win It' Breakfast Scramble Game

By , About.com Guide

Definition:

Breakfast Scramble is a simple puzzle challenge. This is likely the easiest Minute to Win It game to assemble and practice at home, as you don't need any special equipment or talent to pull it off.

The Goal

Assemble a puzzle made from the front of a cereal box, which has been cut into 20 equal sqaures.

Equipment Needed

  • Cereal box
  • Scissors

How to Play

Breakfast Scramble is simple: all you have to do is measure and cut the front panel of the cereal box into 20 equal squares. Stack the squares randomly into a single pile, with picture sides facing down. Start the timer, and you then have 60 seconds to turn over the pieces and reassemble the box cover.

The Rules

  • If a piece of the puzzle falls to the floor, you must pick it up before continuing on with the puzzle.
  • The final puzzle must sit within the designated space on the table.

Tips and Tricks

  • Just like you would with any puzzle, start working at a corner in order to keep the puzzle within the designated space.
  • When you come across pieces with letters, try to put them together to make words. This is easier than matching up images.
