Pudding Pictionary

We are always looking for fun games to play. My kids have played this at school and church, so we decided to play it for family night. It was so easy with very little preparation. I used a four pack of chocolate pudding packs. I dumped out two on each side of the table. You smooth it out with a spatula and use your fingers to draw or the back of a wooden spoon. We grabbed our Pictionary game down from the game closet.

But really it's funner to make up your own. You can have each person come up with ten, and mix them up and draw one out.

We split into two teams.

The drawer picks three cards from the pile. From these cards they picked one to draw. We drew three so that there would be one that would be easy enough to draw with your finger in pudding. We have an older version and some are really hard.

keep drawing an see how many you can get your team to guess before the timer goes out. If your team did not guess the last card, the other team can guess and earn the points. We played to ten.

It was a blast. It's fun to get your hands a little dirty, show your kids your not too old to be silly.

After the game we had a pudding eating contest in a very unusual way, it was too funny. Click here for more details.

Sing Karaoke while wearing mouth retractors. Watching some one sing a song like "Sexy Back" by Justin Timberlake with a mouth guard/retractor while the are drooling and slurring is hilarious. It's fun for Christmas caroling too.

Extreme Spoons

Instead of placing the sons in the middle of the table, put them all over the room in challenging places. You have to run and get them. Careful on where you put them, things will be broken and fought over.

It's charades with a fully dresses blow up doll. There were a few inappropriate cards that I found. And several that are not inappropriate, but you could easily make them inappropriate if you tried. So, depending on your group you may need to make a G-rated rule.

Candy Bar Party Game

We love to play fun and crazy games in our home for family night. I first learned this game from my sister. She had played it at a friend's house and wanted to play it at her birthday party. It's so much fun and is perfect for all ages. It would be perfect for family game, a birthday party, a class party, and a family reunion.

All you need is two dice, at least one candy bar for each player (a variety) and a brown bag or large cup for each player.

The candy bar can be giant sized, snack sized or a mix of all sizes.

Place the candy bars in a pile in the middle of the table.

Each player sits in a circle around a table or on the floor.

There are three rounds to this game.

Round One

Take turns in sitting order rolling the dice.

If the player rolls a 7 or 11, they get to take a candy bar from the pile.

(we've played using doubles instead of a 7 or 11 before too)

Play continues until all the candy bars are taken.

Players can have more than one candy bar, and some players might not have one at all.

Round Two

Continue play rolling the dice as before.

Each player must place their candy bars they won in front of them.

Except, you may now steal the candy bars from the other players when a 7 or 11 is rolled.

Again, some people might end up with a lot of candy bars and some might have none.

Decide how long to play the round. You might adjust time according to the amount of people playing.

We played 10 minutes.

Round Three

Give each player a brown bag, large cup (or you can just hide the candy bar behind your back or under the table)

Each player must place their candy bars in the brown bag or the cup to disclose what you have.

You continue to steal the candy bars from the other players when a 7 or 11 is rolled. Except, now you have to be able to name the hidden candy bar and the person that has it. If you get this wrong you can't take the candy bar.

Again, some people might end up with a lot of candy bars and some might have none.

Decide how long to play the last round. You might adjust time according to the amount of people playing.

We played 10 minutes, then were having so much fun we added another 10 minutes.
