I am the youth director at my church as many of you may know, well we are having a fall festival and want to have games for the teens. Although we dont want anything related to halloween so nothing scary or ect. Anyone got it ideas on games we might can play. Ive found a few online but so many are for little kids which we are having too but Im trying to get stuff for my age group. Any ideas would be a wonderful help! Thanks Karen

Rig up a microphone and have a Christian singing competition. How about a cook-off and then the teens can eat their creations?

Cake walks are always really fun especially if they have to bake the goodies themselves, gunny sack races are super silly for older kids if you pair them up creatively. Have Fun!!

Second the cake walk....enlist some of the granny bakers in the congregation so the deserts you know will be sought after

The ever popular bobbing for apples..or a specific color apple to make it more of a challenge

catching a marshmallow on a string while blind folded

searching for items in whipped cream pies

relay races involving balancing things on plastic spoons

I saw in the ChristianBooks.com catalog that they sell a Christian version of "Guitar Hero" that has praise-and-worship music instead of mainstream rock. Maybe that?

i don't know what you call it, but a friend of mine was just tell me about a game where you tie a bunch of donuts onto strings, tie the strings to a clothes line so the donuts are hanging at about mouth level and then the game is to tie the hands of a bunch of people and have a who can eat the swinging donut without hands race. it sounded fun.

i'm trying to think of other things... we had a pumpkin carving competition at our church college night and it went over really well, but our church is pretty loose with stuff like that. um... oh! ok. I remember. I played this once, it's crazy hard and a lot of fun:

you get really long pieces of rope, I'd say at least 25 ft. you take a team of four to five people. you have them stand in a line and the first person in line ties one end of the rope to their wrist, runs the other end down their shirt and pant leg, the next person runs the rope up a pant leg and up the shirt then next person down the next up, you get it. then the last person ties the end to their wrist. Then you have all the teams do that. then you have them run sort of an obsticle course, get them selves across a long stretch, around a corner, over a log or a line of small folding chairs and then across the finish line. you have them do it one at a time and time them. it's complicated and difficult but it beats the pants off the three legged race.

ok. that's all i got. let me know if that was totally unclear!
