Our youth groups uses this game to initiate our new campers. Youth group sits in a circle. Two youth (number depends on how many newcomers you have) leave the room and put lipstick on the fingers and return and sit by a newcomer.
The leader starts off and says "pinchy inchy inchy on the nose" and then lightly pinches the next person's nose.Then they say it to the next person and pinch them until it goes around the circle.
You can have several rounds (chin/cheek/forehead/etc.) What is happening is the newcomers are getting lipstick all over their face without knowing it. Even if they see someone else's face getting messed up - they usually don't realize they've been got too until everybody starts laughing.
