Get on Noah’s Ark Game
Materials
- laundry baskets (one for each pair)
- stuffed animals (about 3 for each pair of younger students, up to 10 for older students or high school youth ministry)
Instructions
- Divide the students into pairs.
- Give one member of each pair a laundry basket.
- Give the other member of each pair the stuffed animals.
- Have the member with the animals stand with his back to the member with the basket, about 10 feet away.
- The member with the animals tosses an animal over his head towards the one with the basket. Since he has his back to him, he really can’t aim too well.
- The one with the basket tries to catch the stuffed animal.
- Continue with the other animals, retrieving ones which didn’t make it in the basket as necessary.
- The team which catches all of their animals first wins.
