Donut Club!

-


We LOVE donuts so much that we’re bringing you thoughts from another Donut Club! Can there be too many variations on donut clubs?! Absolutely not, that’s like saying there could be too many flavors of donuts. Impossible. So enjoy another flavor of fun….

The night started off with kids and leaders mingling around the room, completing a “Donut Stop
Believin’” coloring sheet that was made and copied for all.

Club began with everyone singing ‘Don't Stop Believin’ together before the talk. This club is spending the semester talking about Jesus’ I AM statements, so in true form to the club theme, they discussed Jesus being the bread of life. He is the one who sustains us. He gives us His energy to keep pressing on when life is hard. They also talked about how there are many things in life that give us a “sugar rush” like donuts but Jesus invites us to discover substance and a meaningful life through a relationship with Him!

For Games and Activities they did:

  • Donut Decorating Contest! 
  • Apple slices created to look like donuts with cream cheese frosting for gluten free option.
  • Crazy colors of frosting
  • A TON of various toppings 
  • Kids names on plates for their decorated donut. 
  • Some parents served as judges- awesome way to bring parents in on the fun
  • Donuts on a String strung across the room! 
  • Everyone had 15 seconds to eat as much of the donut as they could without their hands.
  • Powdered Sugar donuts on a string with one person on the floor and the other standing to hold the string. 
  • Leaders & Buddies paired up as needed. 
  • Donut dipped into chocolate syrup (on a string) 
  •  Fed to the person on the floor. 
Thanks Heather for these great donut ideas! Having a donut club in your area? Or any other fun theme?! Send us your notes and photos to share!

Christmas/Winter Club Game Ideas

  Mixer Q-tip war: Split room in half with tape down the middle. Pass out straws and Q-tips (make sure you test that the Q-tips fit before hand). You will shoot the Q-tips across the line via placing the Q-tip in the straw and blowing. Keep this going for a while and then stop the music and pick a winning side (one with the least amount of Q-tips). 12 days of Christmas: divide the room up into 12 groups (numbers in group vary based on size of club) Each group is a day of the 12 days. Give them some time to think of a motion/dance move that represents their day. Then perform the whole song! Dice Doubles: Have prepared a gift (candy from dollar store goes over great!). Wrap it in MANY layers, including tape! Sit the group in a circle. If you have more than 20, it’s best for multiples circles to play the game. Place the wrapped gift, gloves, a Santa hat and dice in the center (from playing this game with Capernaum many times, I’ve actually learned that one dice with each side

Great Visual for Club Talk on Sin

During club recently, Katey and her friends were talking about sin and the cross during their club talk. They created this great visual that ended up being so helpful for their friends to understand how sin effects us and how the cross offers us such a beautiful way to live instead! They had 5 boxes- one large box named “SIN”, one large box named “GOD”, one medium box named “ME”, one tiny box named “SIN” and one tiny box named “GOD”. They explained how God created us to live in perfect relationship with Him where we live in Him (put the “ME” box in the large “GOD” box) and where He lives in us (put the tiny “GOD” box in the medium “ME” box). Then, take everything out. They then explained how because of sin (with explanation of sin) it looks like this: put the tiny “SIN” box in the “ME” box and then put the “ME” box in the large “SIN” box. They explained how there is nothing that we can do on our own to get sin out of us and there is nothing we can do on our own to get ourselves out

Valentine's Day Club

Mixer Couple Match-up: You will need stacks of two different colored sticky notes (let’s say one green stack and one pink). You will write couple pairs that your friends know on these. For example, on a green write Minnie Mouse and on pink Mickey Mouse. Place the pink on the backs of your friends and greens on the back of leaders/buddies…no cheating! Don’t let them see who is on their back. Once everyone is ready inform them that they are to find their “couple pair.” They will do this by walking around the room and having friends describe their character WITHOUT saying the name! Once you know who you are you can find your pair. The reason it’s important to have the buddies and leaders be the matches is so they can help their friends out! Once you find your match sit down! Game Heart Target: Place heart shaped paper on the floor, walls, or wherever you want. The person playing the game will be handed a balloon, not tied off! They will release the balloon trying to get it to land on one
