Games: Guests finished eating when we called the start of the games. One couple was assigned to be the Limbo King and Queen and their two year old girl was the Limbo Keiki "baby." They held the limbo stick in place and lowered it as we played "Limbo Rock" and everyone tried to go under the Limbo stick. Both adults and kids participated well with this game. We named two winners, one over and one less than four feet tall. The Limbo kit can be purchased, but I just used three pieces of large bamboo from a neighbor's bamboo forest.  The next game was Pineapple Bowling. We used .5 liter water bottles filled with just a dash of water (for stabilization). The bottles were covered with tissue pineapples. We used a purchased coconut for the bowling ball. The patio had taped markings to identify where to place the pineapples and where the bowler had to stand. Mostly the kids played this game. The coconuts were "scored" by the grocery store, which meant after some use they started to leak coconut milk, but they lasted long enough for a winner to be declared. Un-scored coconuts will last much longer. The final game was "Tidal Wave" where we took a very large blanket and placed it on the ground. Everyone now received their previously named mini beach ball and placed it in the center of the blanket. Then everyone grabbed part of the blanket and we called "tidal wave" we tossed the blanket until there was just one ball left and that was our winner. Everyone was able to participate with this game, even our one guest in a wheel chair. This game almost went to fast, but the big participation was great. More Games: During the dessert time, most people were seated, so we handed out pencils and paper and did our quiz on Makaio. We had seven questions and they were all multiple choice so most kids could write A,B,C or D. However the 2 and 3 year olds were busy swinging in the hammock and did not participate. After a winner was found for this game, we counted who had the most pins and had a winner for our Hawaiian name game. Lastly everyone voted on the best dressed Hawaiian on the back of their cards. The winner of this contest got a Boogie board. The rest of the winners got door prizes from a basket. These door prizes included, shell candles, shell sandals, bamboo rain sticks, a coconut bra, a tribal mask, sand toys, a Frisbee, a beach ball, a Scooby rubber ball, a baton, a parrot hand puppet, and a flamingo hand puppet.
