- Name Game Alert! We love this game and so do the kids. Take a look at what we call Pool Noodle Smack Down.
- One of our all-time favorites. All you need are some grocery bags and markers to play I'm Gonna Rip Your Face Off. Watch this video of the Game being played!
- Paul's Survivor Lock-in has almost 10K views on Youtube - watch it to hit that magical number. Also, maybe send us an email if you watch it past the 10K point...that would be SUPER!
- Need some good up-front games? Check out Download Youth Ministry or CrowdControlGames for tons of affordable downloads.
- This game can only be played ONCE and it's a bit of a prank on your kiddos. Check out the game Jerusalem. Here are Instructions on how to play and you'll also need the Print out of the cities to cut up and give out!
- Get to know your group with a couple rounds of Hot Seat.
- Emojis are a hit. We made a competitive game out of texting the emojis. Download the powerpoint here to run it yourself.
