You could also set a timer for a certain amount of time to raise the stakes. The student who makes the most hearts inside the buckets within a specific amount of time wins!
For this game, the players will toss glitter bracelets (a.k.a. "rings") around pink and purple milk bottles. The student who puts the most rings around the bottles wins! To prevent the bottles from tipping, you'll want to fill the milk bottles with sand.
