The part I like least about youth group is the games. I'm not against fun, and playing them can be really great, but they do have a massive down-side for me.
Organising them. Usually my prep will fall comfortably into the basket of ad-hock or uninspired.
But, last night I got it right.
Nothing was flash. In fact, it was painfully simple. And not even an original idea (thanks Paul!).
The hit of the night went like this...
1 - Start with five pieces of paper. Write a sentence on the top page. Pass the pile to the person next to you.
2 - Read the sentence on the page. Draw the sentence on the piece of paper underneath. Pass the pile, with the picture on top to the person next to you.
3 - Look at the drawing and write a sentence of what you're seeing on the paper underneath. Pass the pile, with the sentence on top.
4 - Repeat step 2
5 - Repeat step 3
6 - Flip the paper over to reveal the starting sentence and pass the bundle of paper to the person beside you.
6 - Go around the circle and recount the wacky adventures, starting with the initiating sentence.
