Youth group gamesBen Schnipper of Mexico, Missouri submitted this game. Sounds hilarious! Thanks, Ben!

Indoor Game; All Ages; 10 or more kids

Supplies: Twinkies, babyfood, food injector (preferably one with a a sharp pointed end)

Unwrap all the twinkies and fill the food injector with baby food. Insert the food injector 3/4 of the way into the Twinkie long ways and at the same time inject the baby food and pull the injector out. Do this to all of the Twinkies except four leaving those normal. Place an equal number of Twinkies on two plates placing two of the normal ones on each plate and place in the fridge for a couple hours.

Split your students into two teams and tell them you are going to have a Twinkie eating contest. When you say go one member of each team must race to their plate eat a Twinkie completely and then race back and tag the next person. First team to clean their plate wins.

    Ok - sounds like fun, but what is the lesson here?

    @ Jesse: I suppose you could use it to illustrate how sin works — it looks good on the outside, but the consequences of sin on the inside are never what we expect or desire.

    Honestly, though, it’s really just a fun practical joke to pull on your kids. I did the same thing several years ago by replacing the cream in a plate of Oreo cookies with toothpaste.
