We recently had a Messy Night at youth going along with our TRIBES program. The best game of the night was our epic Slop-sticle Course. Here’s the break down
Station #1 Kids fish gummy worms out of kiddie pool filled with kool aid and oats.
Station #2 Kid belly flops into the pool and then crawls under some ropes, tied between chairs, while baking soda is poured over them
Station #3 Kid crawls through a garbage bag filled with Mayo, Ketchup, Mustard and any other goodie you can think of.

Station #4 Two kid sit in chairs. One kid puts whip cream on the face of the other and then throws popcorn, cheetos, or some other light chip at their face. I put a bag of 20 pieces on the chair and 10 must stick before they move on.
Station #5 Manwhich Mouth. Kids empty a bowl of Manwich Sloppy Joe mix, with their mouth, onto a bun. They have to empty the whole bowl before moving on.
Station #5 Puzzle. Two kids put together a 24-48 piece puzzle. I went to high and got 100 pices puzzles and that station took too long.
