HOW TO PLAY
1

Fill a small cup partway with tinted water to represent gravy and place a large spoonful of it onto each team's starting spoon.

2

The first runner on each team carries the loaded spoon carefully through the marked course without using their other hand to steady it.

3

If the gravy spills completely, the runner must return to the start and refill before trying again.

4

At the finish line, the runner pours whatever gravy remains into a measuring cup to record the amount saved.

5

After all teammates have run, the team with the most gravy successfully carried in total wins.
