Creationary

Team building games, Relaxing games, Artistic games

A friend suggested this game to me and we played it at youth group the following week to give it a test run and it worked really well.

It's called "Creationary" and works in a similar way to pictionary and sculptionary. You'll need a random assortment of lego blocks.

Prepare a good list of (10 or more) words which won't be too challenging to make with lego.

ie.
tree
house
car
dinosaur
hospital

Divide the group into teams and give each team a supply of lego blocks. Each team sends one player up to find out the first word. They then have to return to the rest of their team and "create" the word out of the lego. Once a player in their team guesses what word they've created, that player runs up to the leader with the words and gets the next word. This continues until the team completes all the words.

We sometimes add in an extra challenge. Once a player guesses the word they need to run a lap of the church, then get the next word and continue.

Here are 2 sample lists I used:

List #1
House
Garden
Soccer
Sunshine
Apple
Truck
Cow
Stairs
Police
Circus

List #2
Tomato
Boat
Fire
Bed
Computer
Moon
Chicken
Doctor
Break
Worship
