Hey guys, it’s Jenna. And this week’s theme on Seven Super Girls is “Minute to Win It”.

So today, I’m going to be doing five Minute to Win It challenges. So let’s get started!

So the first Minute to Win It challenge is called “Chandelier”. You need thirty cans that are empty and paper plates and build an inverted pyramid in under a minute.

So I’m ready for this challenge.

Father: “On your mark, get set, go!”

Jenna: “I did it! I did it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

Alright, so the second challenge is called “Sticky Situation”.

And what you have to do is get a basket of ping-pong balls, and you have to stand a few feet away from the table, and bounce the ping-pong ball on the floor, and it has to land on the peanut butter and bread.

And you only have to get one to stick on it.

Father: “On your mark, get set—go!”.

Jenna: “Alright, there’s a winner here: it’s me!”

I want to see how many more I can get on the peanut butter.

Oh time is up.

I got two — almost three but it hit the other balls.

I win again.

So the next game is called “cup broom”. You have stand away from the table and you have to drop the broom, and it has to hit the plate, and you have to catch three flying marshmallows in the cup in one minute.

Mother: “On your mark, get set, go.”

Okay, I caught all three.

Alright so the next challenge is called “Mad Dog”, which you have two containers of mints on your roller. And open your mouth and shake your head, and you have to see if you can get all the mints out.

So, let’s get started.

So the final challenge I’m going to be doing is called “Dizzy Mummy”. So my assistant, a.k.a. my dad is going to hold the toilet roll. And I have to hold the end of it, and spin a bunch of times and completely get all the toilet paper off the roll.

But if it breaks, then it’s over.

Mother: “On your mark, get set, go!”

Jenna: “I’m so dizzy! Did I do it? I can’t see.”
