Youth Ministry Games : balloon blowup

Instructions:
Blow all the balloons up and hold shut with your finger, then grab a bottle of shaving cream and stick the nozzle into the balloon. Squirt shaving cream into the balloon until it is half full. Continue to fill all balloons except one.

Split your youth group into two teams. Line them up facing each other, they must sit on their knees and are only allowed to use one hand. Have each team choose a goalie. The goalie stands at each end of the room, their job is to get the balloons from team mates and pop them with straight pins. The point of the game is for each team to retrieve as many balloons and give them to their goalie as possible. The youth pastor or worker will throw out the empty balloon first, following that all the balloons filled with shaving cream.

The results are hilarious!!! Some balloons pop before they even reach the goalie, and the young people love the messiness of it all.
