Paper plate or pie plateto roll the dice in
Instructions
Start on a flat surface like a table (making sure there are no drinks or anything else on the table because it can get crazy!)
To start, every player rolls one of the dice and the highest roll goes first. The highest roller starts with the Saran Wrap ball in front of them.
The person immediately to their left gets both dice. For each roll, there is a dice roller and an “unwrapper.” On GO! the person with the dice starts rolling (quickly, over and over). Simultaneously, the person with the Saran Wrap ball starts unwrapping the ball. Any prizes that fall out of the ball during this time, the “unwrapper” gets to keep. The game person continues unwrapping the ball until the person next to them rolls doubles.
Once doubles are rolled, the roller yells “DOUBLES!” The dice are then passed left and the previous roller now gets the Saran Wrap ball and starts unrolling it as the new person tries to roll doubles.
A person must have the prize completely unrolled and on the table in front of them to claim it. If it is “almost” unrolled before DOUBLES! is called, they still have to pass it on to the next player without claiming the prize.
Play continues quickly (without stopping) in a clockwise position until the very last prize in the middle has been unrolled and claimed.
Notes
Be sure to set a rule that the plastic wrap cannot be ripped. It must be unrolled. If someone rips the wrap, play is immediately passed to the next person.
