Life Savers Candy Games

Toss Game

• Place six buckets in a vertical row, one in front of the other. Mark a starting line about 4 feet from the first bucket. Use a marker to write the numbers one through six on each one of the buckets. Give each player six Life Savers to try to toss in the buckets. The players must make one candy in each one of the labeled buckets. Award a prize to each player who lands all his candies in the buckets.

Life Savers on a String

• Sit the players in a circle and cut a piece of string or small rope long enough to reach around the entire group. Thread a Life Savers candy on the string and have each player place both hands on the string. The player's hands should make a fist around the string. Select one player to be "it" and have him stand in the middle of the circle. He must close his eyes while the players pass the candy ring from fist to fist around the circle. When "it" says, "Freeze," the players must stop passing the ring. "It" has three guesses to correctly identify who has the candy ring. If he guesses correctly, he selects the next player to be "it."

Toothpick Relay Race

• Divide the players into two teams and have them stand in single-file lines. Give each player a toothpick and the first player in each line a Life Savers candy ring. At the prompt of "Race," the players have to pass the piece of candy down their team line using the toothpicks. If the candy drops on the ground at any time, the team has to start over with the first player in line. The first team to pass the candy all the way down their team line using only the toothpicks wins the game.

Stacking Candies

• Give each player at a table a bowl of Life Savers. When you say, "Go," each player must stack their candies as high as possible. Players can rebuild their tower if it falls within the time limit. Set a timer for five minutes (or as long as needed). When the time is up, the player with the tallest standing candy tower wins the game and a prize.

Roll the Distance

• For an easy game, mark a starting line on a hard surface and have all the players line up on it. Give each player a Life Savers candy. When you say "Roll," the players must roll their piece of candy as far as they can with one push. The player who rolls the round candy the farthest distance from the starting line wins the game.
