Games With Pumkins Night

21 October 2009 One Comment

Here are some games with Pumkins that you can use for your youth ministry game time:

Pumpkin Bowling: Use 2 liter pops and the pumpkins as bowling balls. Make sure you have some back up pumpkins because they tend to break after a few go arounds.

Pumpkin Golfing: Simply cut out holes on the pumpkins big enough for a golf ball to be able to enter and then line them up and have a putting contest to see who can get the golf ball into the pumpkin cut out.

Put Out the Candle: Set up your pumpkins so that you have a candle burning in each one and then have students use squirt guns and try and get the candles put out from a certain distance.

Pumpkin Design Contest: For those with artistic ability, see who can design the coolest looking pumpkin cut out.

Ring Around The Pumpkin: Have a few large pumpkins and have some hoola hoops and see who can throw and ring around the pumpkin/s. Try different various ways like behind your back throw, flip throw, roll throw.

Pumpkin Bocce: Buy a large pumpkin and some tiny pumpkins. The object is to have each player roll the small pumpkin to see who can get the closest to the large pumpkin. Closest roll wins.

Have fun, be creative, and use the pumpkin night however you wish for your youth ministry. If you have other pumpkin game ideas, let everyone know about it by leaving a comment below.

    Thanks so much for the great ideas!

    One more game that we are adding is the pumpkin toss. Each youth gets to toss a pumpkin, but it’s size is in relation to how big each student is. i.e. tiny teen, small pumpkin, big football player…massive pumkin. We asked a local farmer on the day before Halloween if we could pick out pumpkins from his field that he wouldn’t be able to sell…he let us pick out all the green, odd shaped ones….cheap, if your youth group is on a small budget.
