Is Fear a Factor for you?

We had a Fear Factor Father/Daughter Activity this week for our Activity Girls. The other leader was in charge of a spectacular Mother/Daughter brunch this Spring and I was in charge of the Daddy/Daughter activity...so I fed them disgusting food. Seems fitting. Anyway, after doing lots of research and reading about Fear Factor parties online, this is what I came up with. It turned out better than I expected, and we had a good turn out. We had 2 fathers who ate Pig's feet (goblin feet) and another dad who popped a cricket in his mouth, chewed and swallowed-- earning some bonus points. The girls were also very brave and had no problem putting a dog bone in their teeth or digging throw "used" kitty litter for a key. We didn't get to the last challenge that I was initially most excited about, but we can use that another time. Charee is doing a Fear Factor party in her class and so we will be using some of these ideas (some that she has already used in a Fear Factor party from the past.) The other leader and I decorated with all the creepy Halloween stuff that we had, and she made it look awesome. The fog machine didn't set off the fire alarm so that was a good thing. We dressed up and the leader taking all the pictures (so she didn't get any) was a Mad Scientist with a green face, lab coat and Frankenstein afro with bugs in it--great costumer. I typed up my agenda for the evening if you wanted a better idea of what we did just email me: bwbeus@msn.com. Here is our invitation:
