I've been toying with the idea of trying to set one up for my group, but I wasn't sure exactly how to go about it. My kids are so hyper-competitive with each other, it can't help but be a success.<BR/><BR/>The game we end up playing EVERY time is called "Grendel." I hide the pieces to a flashlight throughout the whole church (except the pastor's office and the Sanctuary). Then I turn out every light in the place, and all but one of the group goes out looking for the pieces while "Grendel" (the leftover kid) hunts them. If the group works together, gets the flashlight and shines it on Grendel, they win. Grendel has to "kill" the group by tagging them, but they can be revived by being tagged by a teammate, kind of like freeze tag. Being in the dark is what makes it fun and a little spooky.<BR/><BR/>Depending on the number of kids, you can have more than one flashlight and more than one Grendel.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476902858280070450.post-73235707062646152502009-02-26T11:12:00.000-08:002009-02-26T11:12:00.000-08:00Steph,I did have clue books for them to record inf...Steph,<BR/>I did have clue books for them to record information in and I provided pens.
