Notes

To play the saran wrap ball game you’ll need your loaded and wrapped saran wrap ball, a fun hat, and a pair of dice. Begin by rolling the dice to see who goes first.  Highest roll wins. To play, gather in a circle and the winner of the dice roll puts on the hat and starts unwrapping the saran wrap ball. You must keep the ball on the tabletop at all times and unwrap it as fast as possible while the person to the right keeps rolling the dice until they get doubles. Once they roll doubles the dice will then pass to the person on their right and the hat plus the saran wrap ball will pass to the person who was the dice roller. Once the person to their right rolls doubles, the hat and the ball gets passed again. Keep unwrapping the saran wrap ball as fast as possible the entire time the person is rolling the dice until they roll doubles. You get to keep any goodies you unwrap (no trading until the end). The hat must be completely on your head in order to begin unwrapping the saran wrap ball.  HAVE FUN!!!!
