Sr High Christmas Party

Bring a wrapped gift (Under $15) and a 'snack' to share.
Where: CEFC Youth Room
When: 6:30-8:30pm
Hope to See you there!
Game Choice of the Week -
Select a Intro Game and a Closing Game for this Week
Family Feud
2 teams (Or two groups) are asked to answer several questions about a single topic that we have gotten info from previously. Thequestions are asked in a "Family Feud" format.
Alka-Seltzer On The Head Duel
You may play this game as a quick up-front game or even as a 4-person tournament. 2 contestants, each armed with a squirt gun, will take five paces and turn to duel. On each of their foreheads, you will have attached an Alka-seltzer tablet with double stick tape (possibly use big rubber bands if tape doesn’t work). They draw and shoot the water at each other, the first one to dissolve the tablet on the other's forehead wins. Use swim goggles for each to protect their eyes. The tablet will fizz and foam all over the place. Attack of the Fish
Supplies: Two cups of Goldfish crackers and two big scoops of creamy peanut butter.
Ask for two volunteers who are not allergic to peanuts.
Split up teams around them (Use 3 people for each volunteer if the game is up front, and use everyone if it's being played in a small group). Set the timer and have the teams decorate the volunteers' faces as best they can.
Best "attacked" face wins. Our jr. highers created looks like Goldfish glasses, oversized eyebrows, earrings, and a goatee. Very fun, very simple, and very tasty. For ambience, play the Jaws theme or music while the game is played.
Balloon Master
Small Group/All Play: Divide the group into 2 or more teams with 3-4 people on each team. Large Group/Up Front: Choose 2-4 five-person teams.
Give each team a roll of masking tape and 30 balloons. On "Go!" have members of each team roll the masking tape (sticky side out) around one of their teammates below the neckline. Next, have kids blow up their balloons as quickly as they can and stick as many as possible to the taped-up team member. You can either end the game here awarding the Balloon Master to the one with the most balloons attached in the time allotted, or you can set up an obstacle course and when the balloons have been attached, have the player go through and back to their team. Balloons that fall off during the race may not be re-attached. The team whose player has the most balloons still attached is the Balloon Master.
Clap
This game is a variation of the old faithful "Hot/Cold" game. One person is chosen to be "it" and asked to leave the room so they can't hear or see what is going on in the room. Take about 1 minute and pick an action as a group for "it" to do when he/she returns. (A Jumping Jack, Pick Their Own Nose, etc). When "it" is given the signal to come back in the room he/she has to guess what he/she is supposed to do by walking around, touching things in the room or performing random actions. The group will clap louder and faster the closer "it" gets to completing the task. Remember there is no talking or other clues, but there will be a considerable amount of laughter, and you will be shocked at the detailed and complicated things you can get a person to do simply by clapping.
Elimination
This is either played outdoors in a field or in a gym.
One person is designated as "it" and is given a dodgeball. "It" then chases the rest of the group throwing the ball at them. If someone is hit they must sit down where they are hit. Once the ball is thrown, anyone may grab it and become "it." If the ball is caught, the thrower must sit down and the person who caught the ball is now "it." I normally state that to sit down the ball must hit you in the air and headshots do not count.
The twist is that someone who is sitting down can stand up and be back in the game if the person who hit them has to sit down. Therefore, the game does not end until 1 person ends up hitting every person (or until you call an end to the game due to time).
NOTE: If you play this game outdoors, make clear boundaries so the game does not spread out too much.
Money Grab
Great upfront/crowd game that gets everyone involved but without complete chaos! Supplies: Play $. Give one bill to every person who comes that night, right when they come in. When you’re ready to play, call some people up to the front - suggestion: 3 people for every 100 kids. On, “Go!” your three volunteers run out in the crowd and grab as much money as possible - the crowd lifts up their monopoly money. Set a time limit. The one who runs back to you with the most money wins.
Taboo on Easel
This is like the board game Taboo, but on an Easel and a lot easier. Divide your audience into teams (if you have the typical audience with an isle down the middle, make one half "west side" and the other half "east side." Teams elect someone to be the stool person. Bring that person up and seat them on a stool in front of everyone. Write four words behind them on the easel for all to see except the stool person (example: bulldog, stapler, Spain, paper airplane). Assign a point value for each word (example: 10 points each). Give the team (which is one half of the audience) a certain time (90 seconds) to try to get the stool person to guess the words. The team can do the words in any order. If they break any of the rules or cheat, they not only don't get the points for that particular word, they are given negative points (example: negative 10 points). Do several rounds for each team, one at a time, bringing up new stool people each time. Play until blue in the face.Do not permit "east side" to distract or yell or shout out anything during 'west side's" turn. If they do try and distract the other team, deduct points from them. Same thing goes for "west side."
Rules:
No saying any part of the word on the list (i.e. if "doghouse" is the word to guess, you can not say "dog" or "house")
No hand motions
No "sounds like" or rhyming with other words
Human Tic Tac Toe
9 Volunteers sit in three rows of 3 (Like a tic tac toe board) Each has either a dry erase board or a sheet with an "x" on one side and an "o" on the other side.
The rest of the group is divided into two teams. Each team is asked a question. The team can choose an individual from the board to answer the question. The person on the board answers the question and the team member has to decide if they are answering correctly or not. If they are correct, that person on the board member shows the corresponing "O" or "X". Play until someone gets Tic Tac Toe!
