Materials
Water-filled balloons with a letter of the alphabet written on them. Prepare more balloons with vowels on them than consonants because players will have to use them to form words.
Description
Players divide into teams. Each team will be placed behind a starting line and have in front of them a bucket or container with water-filled balloons with letters of the alphabet written on them (one balloon one letter). When the game begins, the first player from each team will take the knot of a balloon with his teeth and, without using his hands, will carry it to the finish line. There he will drop it inside a bucket or container placed on a chair and return to the starting line. Once the first player has returned, the second player may start, and so on. Once the time has expired, each team will have to form as many words as possible with the letters at their disposal (those written on the balloons they brought to the finish line): it does not matter how long the words are, but the amount of words formed.
Who wins?
The team that, in a set time, manages to form the most words with the letters previously won wins.
