Author: Melissa Haines

Materials

  • At least...2 lbs. of spaghetti noodles, cooked and drained (the more the better)
  • 2 cups of water set aside for game time it can be warm water so kids don't have to put their hands in cold noodles
  • Large bucket, bowl or even an inflatable pool - the biggest you can find A big storage tub would be awesome
  • Toy eyeballs 12 or more -again...the more the better
  • Toy eyeballs 12 or more -again...the more the better
  • Eye mask or towel so nobody peaks
  • Suggested - plastic tablecloth

Instructions

Setting up for the game

  • Pour the drained and cooled spaghetti noodles (brains) into a large bowl
  • Push the eyeballs into the wet spaghetti noodles
  • When you are ready, place the bowl of eyeballs and noodles on the tablecloth covered table

Playing the Game

  • Blindfold the kids that are playing
  • Set the timer for 1 minute
  • Have kids dig to find as many eyeballs as they can in one minute
  • Add the eyeballs back in and add more water to noodles if necessary
  • Let kids take turns until everyone has had a chance to play
  • keep a tally and at the end, the kid who found the most the fastest wins the game

*Keep your cup of water nearby to moisten noodles as they tend to dry out

    For Teams

    • Have 2 or more bowls of noodles set up and let the kids take turns going head-to-head, still giving each team 1 minute per round
    • They can race to see who can find all of the eyeballs first or time them and see what team has the most when time is up
    • Keep a tally of which team won each round and add it up at the end

    Large Groups

    • Get yourself 2 giant buckets or storage tubs, tons of noodles -maybe 10 pounds in each bucket, and lots of eyeballs. That would give people more gross wet noodles to dig through and make it a lot more challenging.
    • Teams should race to see who can find all of the eyeballs first - or time them and see who has the most at the end
