Game Book Relays

Game – BOOK RELAYS

Divide players into two teams, with the same number of players in each team.  The first player from each team puts a book on his or her head and makes his way around an obstacle course and back to team member #2.

Every time a book is dropped, 10 seconds are added to that teams score. Touching the book with your hands gains 5 seconds to the teams score.  Have an umpire/time keeper assigned for each team.   Team at the end who completes the course in the shortest time is the winning team.  Have the kids recite the memory verse several times before and between rounds.

In the game blow cup relay make 2 teams of 5 or 6 players each.  Put a hole in the bottom of a paper cup and thread it on a piece of string 15 feet longGive one prepared string to each team.   The string is held taut so the cup can slide, and the paper cup is placed at one end of the string.  The teams line up single file at the end where the paper cup is.  At the signal each player must blow the cup to the other end of the string (with hands behind back), and then push it back to the start for the next player on his team.  The first team whose members all finish, win.

Hi friends I am always on the hunt for games that I can do in kids church.  I like to start out the service with review games especially if I can cover the bible story from the previous week.

Attached is a link for some really good children’s games.  I especially like the one called “Chatter Bee” .  I think I will try it this Sunday.

Have Fun!

Game – BIG CLOTHES RELAY

Make 2 teams of 4 people each.   Usually boys vs. girls works best.  Have them line up one behind the other at the starting line.  In front of each line is a pile of over-sized clothing. There is an equal number of articles in each pile.   When you say 1,2, 3, go, the first child from each team puts on every article of clothing and then runs to the finish line.    They must run back to their team and touch the next person in line who will now put all the clothes on and run to and back from the finish line.  When each person has finished their part of the relay the team sits down.   First team to be all sitting down is the winner. Pick new teams.   Remember to repeat the memory verse several times between rounds.
