We love carnival style games and took the classic bottle lift game and put a fall and Halloween spin on it. We call it the “Pumpkin Stem Lift”. The general idea of the game is to use the fishing pole with the ring on it to stand the pumpkin themed bottle upright. The idea is simple, but the game itself can be challenging but certainly not impossible. Our family spent an hour challenging each other in speed races, or challenged themselves to a personal best. Some–we won’t mention names–made it his mission to figure out if it was possible to cheat the game. Spoiler alert, yes it is possible to cheat.
