You'll get some great reactions with this game. Place different food items such as spaghetti, chicken breasts, popcorn, potato chips,cottage cheese,tuna,and even pet food all in six separate shoe box size containers. Use your imagination when choosing the food items- the crazier,the better. To play, ask for six volunteers to come sit in a row of chairs that faces the audience. Ask each volunteer to remove the shoe and sock from one foot. Then blindfold all the volunteers. Have six more volunteers come and assist the players. Each helper will need paper and a pen or pencil to use during the game. Place a container of food at the feet of the first player. Have her stick her foot inside and try to identify what the food is. When she has a guess, have her whisper it to her partner who will write it down for later scoring. Keep the food moving. Once player one has a guess,move the first container down so player two can also guess. Meanwhile go ahead and give the first player the second container of food to identify. Repeat this until every foot has a chance to feel each food. When each player is done, give them washcloths to clean off their feet. Once everything is cleaned up, share the correct foods from each container so you can announce a winner. The one with the most correct guesses is the winner.
