A year ago, North America was in a panic over toilet paper. Shelves were bare and jokes of paying for things in toilet paper were everywhere. To celebrate this event in history (okay to poke fun at ourselves) we have created the Toilet Paper Games. Mostly because, although we’re no longer worried about our bathroom needs, many of us are still stuck in our homes with time on our hands, wondering what to do with ourselves and our kids.
Supplies for Toilet Games
To play these Toilet Paper Games you need some empty TP rolls.
String
Hole Punch
Small item such as a cork
10 coins (any domination)
Ping Pong Balls
Nerf Gun or Water gun

Peanut in the Cup
The first Toilet Paper Game is Peanut in the Cup. To set this up, you need a hole punch, string and a small item such as a wine cork. First, punch a hole in the bottom of the cup. Next, tie one end of the string in the hole. Then tie or tape the other end of the string onto the small item. (it could be an actual peanut that is still in it’s shell.) The string should be slightly longer than the toilet paper tube.
To play Peanut in the Cup, you hold the tube in your hand and try to flip the cork, the “peanut” into the tube, the “cup.” Each plyer has five turns to get the peanut in the cup. The player who has gets the most peanuts in the cup is the winner.
Ring Toss
The next Toilet Paper Game is Ring Toss. For this game you need three glow sticks put together to make rings and some masking tape. Before staring, tape a tube to the floor or table. Next, tape a line on the floor a foot or two from the tube.
To play, a player stands at the line and tosses the glow sticks to try to get the rings around the tube. The player who pegs the most rings wins.
Coin Drop
The next Toilet Paper Cup game is Coin Drop. For this game, you need a toilet paper tube and about 10 coins and a chair or something to stand on.
To Play Coin Drop, you place the toilet paper tube on the floor. Then the player stands on the chair and drops the coins, trying to get them into the toilet paper tube. The player who gets the most coins in the tube is the winner.
Cloud Races
For this Toilet Paper Game, you need a cotton ball and a tube for every player.
To play, each player stands on one side of a table with a tube. On the mark, the players put there cotton balls on the table and blow through the toilet paper tube to get their cotton ball to move. The first player who gets their cloud across the table wins.
Shooting Range
To play the Toilet Paper Shooting Range game, you need five toilet paper tubes and five ping pong balls (or large pompoms or anything that can sit on the edge of a tube) and a nerf gun or eater gun. If you don’t have either, you could try to blow the ping pong balls instead.
Before a player takes a turn, you set the tubes up in a line and place the ping pong balls on top. The player then uses the gun the try to shoot the ping pong balls off the tubes. Each player gets five shots. The player who shoots the most balls off is the winner.
Bowling
For this Toilet Paper Game you need six toilet paper tubes and a small ball.
To play, set the tubes in a triangle format a few inches apart. Next, the player whose turn it is stands back a fee feet and then rolls the ball towards the tubes, trying to knock the most over. The player who knocks over the most tubes wins.
In the Door
Before playing In the Door, you need to cut a small archway in the bottom of a tube. You may want to tape the tube to the floor or table. You need about five marbles to play this game.
To play, a plyer stands back a few feet. Then they try to roll the marble into the ached doorway of the tube. The player with the most marbles in the door is the winner.
Basketball
For the Toilet Paper Game Basketball, you need a laundry basket and a tube.
To play, players stand at a designated spot and try to throw the tube into the laundry basket like a basketball. Each player gets three tries. The player who sinks the most baskets wins.
Bounce In
For this Toilet Paper Games game, you need a small bouncy ball and five toilet paper tubes. Cut the tubes at different lengths on a diagonal. Next, tape the tubes together with the tall ones at the back and the shorter ones at the front. Mark the tallest ones with 15, the middle heights with 10 and the shortest with 5.
To play, each player tries to bounce the ball on the floor and then land it in one of the tubes. They score the amount of points that is marked on the tube. Everyone gets three tires. The player with the most points wins.
Snake
In this Toilet Paper Game, there are no losers—only winners as everyone wins. To play, you need a tube for every two players. Cut the tubes in half lengthways. You need a small ball. Each player stands in line side by side, holding a half tube. Next, the player at the start on the line puts the ball in his tube and passes it to the next player. He then moves to the end of the line as fast as he can. The ball is passes down the line form player to player with each player running to the end of the line. The fun is to see how long the team can keep the ball moving.
