The Challenges

Sorting Jellybeans with Chopsticks

  • Task: Transfer as many jellybeans of a selected color into a cup using only chopsticks.
  • Tips: Choose the color that's most abundant in the bag! Wrong colors don't penalize you so if some jellybeans are stuck together, don't waste time trying to seperate them!
  • Score to beat: 32 beans was the high score during our game!

Cup Stacking and De-Stacking

  • Task: Stack 15 plastic cups into a pyramid shape (triangle formation) and then quickly unstack them.
  • Tips: Keep calm and move steadily. Accidentally knocking cups off the table will cost precious seconds!
  • Time to beat: A blazing fast 18 seconds!

Balloon Cup Blowing

  • Task: Use a balloon to blow 13 plastic cups off the table within 60 seconds.
  • Tips: Blow up the balloon to its fullest and use the airflow efficiently to knock the cups off in fewer blows. Don't go for 1 cup at a time. Our winner was able to knock 6 cups at one time!
  • Time to beat: 26 seconds!
