Minute to Win It Games for Teens

Minute to Win It Games for Teens

Letter Game: Split into pairs. Pick a letter and alternate saying names or words that start with that same letter. The player to hesitate first within the minute loses. This could also be played by going from A-Z instead of the same letter. Make it harder by picking a category such as foods, Disney movies or zoo animals.

Streamer Race: The player must unroll 2 rolls of party streamers using only their hands and arms. That means they cannot throw, kick, or grab the spool directly. They have to simply pull on the streamers to unroll. The first one to unroll it in 60 seconds or whoever unrolls the most wins!

Guess That Food: One person is blindfolded and others each pick a food item for him to taste and guess without seeing it. The player who guesses the most items right in a minute is the winner. Keep food allergies in mind!

Minute to Win It Games

Junk in the Trunk: Wiggle a box that is attached to your waist filled with ping-pong balls until the box is empty. When the clock starts, players may begin moving their bodies to shake the ping-pong balls out. The first one to empty all their ping pongs within 60 seconds or empty the most, wins!

Blindfold Bowling: Set up ten bowling pins. If you don’t have pins then you can use empty plastic bottles or soda cans. Blindfold your player, spin them around twice, and let them roll. Oh my goodness, nobody rolls straight after that spin! They get as many turns as they can fit into the minute. Most pins knocked down WINS!

Water Bottle Flip: Have players take a water bottle and ask them to flip it on the table in front of them. Whoever’s water bottle flips and lands perfectly the most times in one-minute wins!

Fun Minute to Win It Games

Wrap Around: Two players must use colored streamers and wrap the streamers around another player to wrap the player up like a mummy. Teams have one minute to completely wrap the other player up or to make the best overall mummy.

Runny Nose:  Players get into groups of two and each has a box of tissues. The pairs line up across from each other and prepare to start pulling out tissues. Once the timer begins, it’s an all-out race to see which duo can pull out all the tissues from the box first!

Face Cookie: If you’ve ever played minute to win it games before, you’ve probably played this one! Players must put an Oreo (or any other kind of cookie) on their forehead and get it to their mouth using only their face muscles (no hands). I’ve seen this done by using face muscles or by popping the cookie up and catching in your mouth – the former is definitely easier but not as fun!

Teen Games

Sticky Face: This is such a funny minute to win it game for teens! Grab a stack of sticky notes and a partner for each player. The partner sticks the notes on, one at a time, and the face they end up making is half the fun. Most notes still stuck at 60 seconds WINS!

Skittle Sort: Pick up the speed, this quick game is super fun! Sort a pile of about 75 skittles into the corresponding colored cups with one hand!

Marshmallow Toss: One person has to throw mini marshmallows one at a time to their teammate who is standing about 4 feet away.  The catcher has to catch them in an empty paper cup held in their teeth, no hands on that cup at all! Whichever pair has the most marshmallows in the cup at 60 seconds wins.

Race the Clock with These Fun Games

Noodle Pick Up: The person holds a spaghetti noodle in their mouth and tries to pick up as many ziti noodles as possible, without using their hands.

Eat it Up: Place the end of an unwrapped Fruit by the Foot into each player’s mouth.  The object of the game is for the players to eat it as quickly as possible without using their hands.

Pudding Put Down: Players have to suck an entire snack size cup of pudding down using nothing but a straw.  It is so much harder than it looks, and handing them a second straw does not help one bit.  For me, it makes me a little grossed out, but it is SO FUNNY TO WATCH!

Teen Party Games

Sticky Balls: Run a strip of double-sided tape across the far end of the table first, sticky side up. Then players roll marbles down the table and try to get them to stop on the tape. Most marbles stuck when the minute ends wins!

Starburst Stack: One person puts a popsicle stick in their mouth.  The other person stacks as many starbursts as possible onto the end. Once your starbursts are stacked, you must hold for 3 seconds to win!
