Fear Factor Mormon Style

For our Mutual activity on Wednesday, we put together a Fear Factor for our girls. There were six challenges for them to do. Some of them required a team effort, some two players to complete and some were individual challenges. We divided the girls into three teams of three. We were one girl short, so our beehive adviser stepped up to help out. Each team picked out their own name. I thought they were quite clever.

Challenge 1: Glob of Goo.
Two girls from each team had to taste six different jars of
baby food and determine what it was they were eating.

Challenge 2: Quick Hands.
The girls worked together to put together a
50 piece puzzle. The quickest team got the points.

Challenge 3: Mystery Surprise.
Two girls from each team had to drink a mixture we created.
The team that drank it the fastest got 5 points, second got 3 and
third got 1 point. However most of the teams couldn't stomach it.

We blended taco soup, blueberries, spinach, and ginger ale together.
I tasted it and it wasn't so bad, but the girls HATED it!

Kaeley was the only one who could drink it.
Way to go Kaeley!

Challenge 4: Lock and Key
One girl was locked up and another girl was blind-folded.
The blind-folded girl had to crawl down the field and dig through
a bucket of kitty-litter and tootsie rolls to find the key then make
their way back to their partner and unlock them.



Challenge 5: Pucker Up
All the girls from each team had to put a lemon in their
mouth and suck on it for one minute.

They all thought this was easy. I was surprised.
I only like lemon in lemonade with lots of sugar.

Challenge 6: The Plank
All the girls had to hold the plank yoga pose for as long as possible.
I was impressed by how long they were able to hold it.

Kristy, one of our leaders, was able to hold it the longest.

The Final Challenge: Ice Cream Scarf
This was our dessert part of the evening.The girls made a
sundae on the table with ice cream and assorted toppings.

Then they ate their sundae as fast as they could with out
using their hands. Stefanie was the winner of this challenge.

The final tally for Fear Factor. The girls had a great time and
were willing to try all of the challenges. We were so proud of them.
Next year maybe we will include the boys.
