This challenge may sound simple, but it's a tricky test of grace and speed.

What You Need

• Bowl of pennies

• Large spoons

Instructions

1. Setup: Mark the start and finish lines. Count the number of pennies it takes to fill a spoon, and place that many pennies per player in a bowl.

2. Playing the Game: Each player gets a spoon and fills it with the specified amount of pennies. After the referee calls "Ready, Set, Go!" players race toward the finish line. If a penny falls from a spoon, the player has to stop, pick up the coin, and put it back onto the spoon before continuing. The first player to cross the finish line with a full spoon wins.
   
   If there are a lot of racers, divide them into heats and have a race between the winners to determine the champion.
