For reasons not to be disclosed yet, I arranged a small scavenger hunt for the kids at my school.
I made / found 20 Spiders out of paper.
I got 20 plastic cups and filled them with sweets and wrapped them in cellophane. and wound the top shut with a wire and a paper flower.
(The kids love my paper crafting skillz!)
Then I proceeded to hide them in various places... places that are obviously visible mind (since the kids aren't the brightest of the bunch)
And I gave these brats a few clues where the spiders were hidden.
This was obviously a disaster waiting to happen. And that's exactly what happened. no sooner did I say start, every single kid went running amok. It was like a sea of crazy kids going round and round in circles. You've seen floods on TV right? This was a flood of 3~4 foot tall kids. Running and Screaming.
And usually, at the sight of something this disastrous, I try to herd them together and put them safely behind bars. But! this time around, I just stood in the middle, let them find the 20 spiders and laughed like a maniac.
So, it took like 10 maybe 15 minutes for the chaos to die. But... It. Was. Worth. It.
