Take lots of plain elbow macaroni noodles (uncooked) and disperse them openly onto a table top (where all the children will surround). Every child gets a pair of chopsticks and a papercup. The object of the game is to get as many of the noodles into the cup using the chopsticks. At the end of five minutes (can be less), the child who has the most macaroni noodles, wins.
