The cereal box game

Sometimes the most fun you can have can come from something that only costs you a couple of dollars! I’ve thrown my fair share of parties, events, and meetings. And I have played all kinds of games, team building activities, and ice breakers.

But the cereal box game takes the cake on. It can be played with a small group or large group. And the great thing is that if some people don’t want to play they will be super entertained just watching.

This game is suitable for kids to adults…The only real criteria is being flexible.

So, let’s get down to the rules and how to play!
