Matchstick Truth or Lie

Relaxing games, Icebreaker games, Junior youth games

Before playing, designate two actions for 'true' and 'false' (such as hands on heads or hands behind back)and hand out five matchsticks to each player. When it is a players turn they say their ONE STATEMENT about themselves (true or false). There is then a countdown (usually by the Youth Group leader) at which point the youth do the action which they beleive reflects the statement said by the player. The player then reveals the correct answer and those who got it wrong must give the player one of their matchsticks. Once everyone has had a turn get them to count up how many matchsticks they have, the player with the most wins.
