HOW TO PLAY
1

Fill a basket with small household items like a spare key, a dish towel, and a candle.

2

Divide guests into teams lined up at a starting point across the room or yard from a welcome mat.

3

One at a time, a team member races to the basket, grabs a single item, and carries it to arrange neatly on the welcome mat.

4

Teammates tag in the next runner only after the previous item is placed on the mat.

5

The team that empties the basket and arranges every item on the mat first wins the relay.
