After each successful throw, take 1 step back. The team that gets the furthest without dropping the popcorn wins.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: if consecutive successful throws prove too difficult, chose a fixed number of popcorn pieces to throw and see which team can move farthest away.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Cup Drop &ndash; Stand on a chair and try to get as many pieces of popcorn to hit the target: the inside of the cup on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>The Toss Up &ndash; In 60 seconds, toss as many pieces of popcorn, one at a time, into the air and try to catch them in your mouth.<\/p>\n<p>The Distance Throw &ndash; Throw a piece of popcorn as far you can.<\/p>\n<p>For more info, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/oneshetwoshe.com\/2013\/03\/the-popcorn-olympics-fun-activity-for-kids-she-veronica.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OneSheTwoShe.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grab some popcorn and get ready for the movie!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8221,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6896],"tags":[368,490,491,367,14,366,16914,18821,6104,492,22565,10927,493,369,494,21,12,365,4124,22718,13,495,22566,22563,22564,17951,22560,22561,15120,22562,14316],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
