Panda Party Games

Some of the finer details of Annalise's birthday party were decided before any planning was done. One thing she wanted to do was an egg and spoon race. We panda-fied it by making the eggs "baby pandas".
Old sharpie marker and egg shell don't mix!
We played it two ways - no one broke it carrying the spoon, so in the 2nd round they held the spoon in their mouths.
Much messier!

After the game, Irene enjoyed helping with the clean up!

So it sounds a little gruesome, but life for a newborn panda is pretty uncertain.  They are very tiny and their mortality rate is about 40%.  That is about the percentage of eggs that were broken too - at least during the game!  By the time, I wrangled the kids off to the next game, there were no unbroken eggs.

The other games were:

Steal the bamboo (aka Steal the bacon)

Sleeping Pandas (aka make me laugh)

Who has the bamboo (aka the eraser game)
