A Girls Only Weekend at Mendota Campground! Entry 5
Games! Games! Games! continued
Today, I want to share the games I named Noodle and Balloons and the Cereal Box Puzzle.
Noodles and Balloons
I find this type of game frustrating because gosh, I stink at it. The nieces went later and had a great strategy that I never even thought of at the time. I thought I had to hold the noodle at the bottom and swing the thing - okay I was dead wrong. I should have figured that one out because the girls asked clarifying questions that should have been a hint to my brain.
 |
| Susan is headed in the correct direction while I appear to be going backwards! |
 |
| Diane, Maddie, and Molly prepare to take off. |
 |
| Does anyone know which way to go? That is the frustrating part of this game. The balloon does not understand the plan. |
 |
| Maddie turns and faces the end goal. |
 |
| Now, we're off and running! |
 |
| Kim and Alaina take the challenge on next. |
Cereal Box Puzzle
This game is a version of concentration. All of the pieces were square but Susan had cut up the fronts of two cereal boxes which we had to reconstruct while being times.
 |
| Molly tries to beat her Mom, Diane. This looks easy, but I found it fun and challenging. |
 |
| A close-up of the action! |
 |
| The old Captain Crunch Box - well actually it's the new "peanut butter" Captain Crunch box. |
This is the second to the last entry about the trip. So bear with me for one more day and then things will return to normal.
