Mouthwash Game Variations: Fun Ideas

Mouthwash Game Variations

Ever thought about making mouthwash a little more fun? It’s not just for fighting germs! You can actually turn swishing into a silly, laughter-filled activity with your friends and family. Let’s explore some different mouthwash game variations, designed to make oral hygiene a bit more entertaining.

The Classic Bubble Challenge

Let’s begin with the basic game that probably comes to mind first, the bubble challenge. It’s simple, it’s silly, and it’s a great way to see who’s got the best bubble-making skills. This game is perfect for all ages, and it only requires mouthwash and some open space.

How to Play

First, everyone gets a small amount of mouthwash, about a capful, just like when you are using it for cleaning your mouth. Then, after putting it in your mouth, start swirling the liquid around and then gently blow outwards to try and create the biggest bubble you can. The person who makes the largest, most impressive bubble wins the round! It’s all about practice and having fun. For an added challenge, you could try to see who can blow the most bubbles at once or who can keep a bubble going the longest.

Tips for Bubble Champions

• Don’t use too much mouthwash: A smaller amount helps you control the bubble.
• Keep your mouth relaxed: This helps you blow more smoothly.
• Practice makes perfect: The more you try, the better you’ll get at blowing those amazing bubbles.

The Mouthwash Relay Race

Get ready for some fast-paced fun with the mouthwash relay race! This game combines teamwork, speed, and a bit of silliness. This game is great for groups and requires a little bit of space.

Setting up the Relay

First, divide everyone into teams of three or more. Each team will need a small cup for each member and a finish line. The aim of the game is that one member of the team will fill a small cup with mouthwash, then, holding the mouthwash in their mouth, run to the finish line. When they arrive, they will spit the mouthwash into an empty container. Once finished the next member of their team will do the same until all members of that team have completed the relay race. The first team to finish wins the race.

Relay Race Rules

• No Spitting Before the Finish: Make sure they hold the mouthwash in their mouth until they reach the finish.
• The Fastest to Finish: The first team to complete the relay wins.
• Use Small Cups: Small cups will make it a bit more challenging.

Mouthwash Musical Swish

Time to combine music and mouthwash in this silly game that is perfect for small groups. It’s a lot like musical chairs but with a mouthwash twist.

How to play

First, get some music that everyone loves. Give each player a small amount of mouthwash. When the music plays, everyone puts the mouthwash in their mouth and starts moving around the circle like musical chairs. When the music stops, everyone freezes and must hold the mouthwash in their mouth until the music starts again. The goal is not to swallow or spit the mouthwash until the music stops again. The last person left who has held the mouthwash in their mouth wins the game.

Making it Exciting

• Silly Moves: Encourage everyone to move around in fun ways while the music is playing.
• Surprise Stops: Change the length of the music segments to keep everyone on their toes.
• No Swallowing or Spitting: A golden rule! Those who swallow or spit before the music stops will be out of the game.

The Mouthwash Art Project

Ready to get a little creative? This game combines art with mouthwash, and is great for those who love to make a mess. This is best played outside.

The Set up

Get some large sheets of paper or even a large cardboard box. Then, get small cups filled with various colored mouthwash (if available, otherwise just use regular). Each player gets a cup of mouthwash. They should then take a mouthful of mouthwash and gently spray it onto the paper to create different designs. They can do this by gently blowing the mouthwash out of their mouth and creating all sorts of patterns and colors. Once finished they can compare each others creations and enjoy their masterpeices.

Artistic Tips

• Experiment: Try different ways of spraying the mouthwash to create different effects.
• Combine Colors: If you have multiple colors of mouthwash, mix them up and create some interesting shades.
• Embrace the Mess: This one’s all about having fun, so don’t be afraid to get a little messy.

The Silent Mouthwash Charades

This game is a bit like traditional charades, but with a mouthwash twist. It’s great for working on your acting and guessing skills. It is suitable for groups of 4 or more.

How to Play

Before the game starts, everyone must decide on some things they can act out. These could be anything like animals, actions or objects. Each player takes a mouthful of mouthwash and they must keep the mouthwash in their mouth whilst acting out their chosen word or action. The other players must guess what they are acting out. The first person to guess correctly is the winner of that round and will be next to act. If the player spits or swallows before the round is over they are out.

Tips for Acting Out

• Choose simple objects/actions: Choose things that are easy to act out without speaking.
• Use your body: Use actions and facial expressions to give clues.
• Keep it funny: The more silly, the more fun.

The Flavor Guessing Game

This is a good one for those who like to guess things. It involves tasting different mouthwash flavors.

Playing the Game

Gather several different flavors of mouthwash. Then one person will put a small amount of each mouthwash flavor in separate, unmarked cups. One person will put the mouthwash into their mouth, swish it around and try to guess the flavor. If they guess correctly they will get a point. Play with multiple people and see who can get the most points to be declared the mouthwash flavour champion.

Tips for Guessing

• Take your time: Swish the mouthwash slowly to pick out all of the flavor notes.
• Focus on the hints: Think about what the flavor reminds you of.
• Don’t be afraid to be wrong: It’s all just for fun!

Mouthwash Freeze Dance

This is an energetic version of the classic freeze dance. It’s a fantastic way to get moving while holding mouthwash.

Getting Started

Choose a fun, upbeat song to play. Everyone puts a little mouthwash in their mouth. When the music starts, everyone dances like crazy! When the music pauses, everyone freezes, holding the mouthwash in their mouth. Those who move or swallow/spit the mouthwash are out of the game. The last player standing wins.

Extra Fun Ideas

• Silly Dance Moves: Encourage everyone to show off their wackiest dance moves.
• Varying Freeze Times: Make the freeze times shorter or longer to make it harder.
• Dance Zones: Create a dance zone that they must stay in to make it more challenging.

The Mouthwash Distance Challenge

This game tests distance and aims to see who can spit their mouthwash the furthest. This should always be played outdoors.

How to Play

Get everyone a small cup of mouthwash. Get each player to take a mouthful of mouthwash and, with a bit of force, spit it outwards. See whose can travel the furthest and be declared the winner.

Tips and Tricks

• Use force, but in control: Practice makes perfect, so keep trying.
• Try different amounts: Sometimes smaller mouthwash amounts work better than larger ones.
• Pay attention to wind: Try to aim with the wind behind you, to give you a little bit of help.

The Mouthwash Emoji Game

This game is great if you are a fan of emoji’s. In this game you must act out different emotions that are represented by emojis, all while holding mouthwash in your mouth.

How to Play

First, gather some cards that each have a different emoji on them. Split everyone into pairs. Give each pair some mouthwash. One person will draw a card and they will have to act out the emoji while holding mouthwash in their mouth. The other player must guess the emoji. If they guess correctly they will be awarded a point. The players must take turns acting and guessing, and the winner is the person to get the most points. If any player swallows or spits the mouthwash before the round is over they will be out.

Emoji Tips

• Pick Simple Emojis: Start with simple emojis that are easy to interpret.
• Use Your Face: Express the emotion with your face to make it clearer.
• Exaggerate a little: Making the emotion a little over the top will help to get it across clearly.

The Mouthwash Story Game

This is a creative game where players work together to create a story while holding mouthwash in their mouths.

How to Play

Start with one person beginning a sentence, using one or two words. That person will then take a mouthful of mouthwash. The next person will then add to the story and also take a mouthful of mouthwash and so on. The aim of the game is to create a fun and interesting story. Players must hold the mouthwash until they are not adding to the story and if they spit or swallow before their turn is over they are out of the game. This game can be played with as many or as few people as you like.
