Water Day!

Thursday at youth group is going to be a water day free-for-all. Here's one of the ideas we found:

Dunk and Run
Description
This game is very simple yet very hilarious. All you need is 4 sleeping bags (preferably old ones) and 4 garbage cans (or something large to fill with water.)

Set the 4 garbage cans in a large square, perhaps along the perimeter of the field you are working on.

Fill each can with water and put a sleeping bag in each.

Split the kids up into 2 teams and then split each team into 2 sides.

The object of the relay is to get from one side to the other along the diagonal. When the relay starts, each kid has to grab the sleeping bag and put it over their head so that they can't see and can't move their arms.

Then they have to cross the field and get to the other garbage can. Whichever team gets side to switch places wins.

What's funny is when they are all running at once and they crash into each other. Plus, it's just hilarious to see these kids try to run with sleeping bags over their bodies.

Can't even wait...
