Description

In this challenge, participants must fill a bucket located around 10 meters away from a water source (like a drinking fountain) to the marked line.

The operator is positioned near the bucket, and participants must run back and forth to fill it with water (without picking it up)... Only when the water reaches the line will the operator give them the riddle! Solving the riddle will let them advance to the next challenge.

Adjust the difficulty to your group:

- Easier: provide cups and keep the bucket fairly close.

- Harder: poke a hole in each cup (they might get wet...)

- Really challenging: give them nothing, forcing them to find creative ways to transport water (in their hands, mouths, etc.)

Required Items
  • Bucket
  • Plastic cups for all participants
Instructions
  • Place the bucket around 10 meters from the water source
  • Poke holes in the cups (based on desired difficulty)
  • Print out the riddle that the operator gives when the task is complete
