Several have asked me about our Nerf Night.  I thought you might like to know how we played the games.  It was so much fun!  First game, we went to the gym and set up some tables on their sides as barriers to hide behind.  We played moms vs. sons and the goal was to have someone from the opposing team get past their opponents to touch the back wall without getting shot with the nerf dart.  We played a while then took a break for water and a cookie while I shared a quick devotional and prayed. 

 Next, I explained the Combat War games.  I divided the group in half with yellow headbands and blue headbands so you will know their teammates.  Moms and sons are on the same team and often stuck together.  Sent each group to different locations in the church then blew a whistle to begin.  The goal was to find the three stuffed animals hidden with the boundaries.  The team that found (and rescued) the most animals, wins.  Take a break and play again.   

If you were shot with a nerf dart, you had to lie on the floor and raise your hand and call for a medic.  Six of us played the role of medics wearing black aprons with a white tape cross on it.  We would rush to you and give you a single Smartie candy which would give your life back and you were back in the game.  Medics cannot be shot or the shooter will lose their gun.  Easy rule! 

Have lots of water and plan time at the end to pick up all the darts then return to the meeting room for the candy prizes for the winners and second place got the same thing.  Lots of fun!  Event details I used to promote the event.
