Youth Ministry Games : Pool Noodle Names

1. Pool Noodle Names Submitted by: Jonathan Dixon on February 10, 2000
Website: http://www.crosswinds.net/~jondixon/
Materials: Pool Noodle
Messy Rating: No Sweat     Duration: 5-20 minutes    Cost: $0.00

(Aka Fruit Basket) Have everyone sit on chairs in a circle and have one person in the middle with half of a pool noodle. One person starts by saying their name and then a second person's name. The person in the middle must try to hit the second person with the pool noodle before that person can say their own name and then someone elses. When the person in the middle hits someone before they say both names the person in the middle takes that person's chair and that person becomes the middle person. When the person in the middle is successful and thus gains a chair, they are the ones to start the game again by saying their own name and then someone elses. They have to do this before they sit in the chair, and if the forget and sit down first, they go back in the middle. As a variation for groups that get this quickly, have everyone make up a name (it can be anything, but make sure that they all sound different) and then everyone (especially the person in the middle) has to remember the new names as well as play the game. Again, its a very confusing kind of fun!
