mom31257 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 My Sunday school class is having breakfast at a local women's residential ministry for women who are recovering from addictions. We would love to play some games with the ladies after the meal. I would appreciate any suggestions! We'll have 20-25 there total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Tick Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 If you want games for the entire group together I suggest searching for "icebreaker games". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raifta Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 If you have a large space and enough chairs for everyone to sit on, and are not opposed to active running games, I would suggest "I Love My Neighbour" as a good icebreaker game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanaqui Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 When I was a kid, we called that "The wind blows" or "Fruit salad". (You could get everybody to run around if you said "hurricane" or "fruit salad".) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted October 19, 2017 Author Share Posted October 19, 2017 How old is the sunday school class? What type of age group are we talking about at the residence? Spoons might be good. Or Euchre, though that's in groups of 4 so it depends on how many you have total. Or maybe Pictionary or Hangman. Scattergories? The class ranges from 40s up to 60s/70s. The ladies in the home are in their 20s to 40s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendy not in HI Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 We have done kind of a speed dating sort of thing with simple getting to know you questions printed on cards. This works well if everyone is sitting at rectangular tables. The cards are stuck to the table. You have 1 minute to answer the question and talk to the person across from you. Then when the timer goes, everyone shifts one to their left.... It is a fun way to chat with someone - just enough time to say a few sentences, but not so long that it gets awkward. Be sensitive about the questions you choose. Maybe a different game at each table? Dominoes here, Uno there, etc. Your group members can each bring a game, then one person can lead a game at each table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
