I was going to call this Games That Suck, but that is a terrible title. These games do suck, but in the best possible way, because…straws!
I am an Amazon Affiliate, so anything you buy helps support this website and the ministry of Disciple Project Ministries. If you want to stock up on straws, let me invite you to check out this pack of 500 Bendy Straws and if you need thicker straws, here are some extra big smoothie straws.
Now, on with the games!

This game is super simple, but you could jazz it up and make it a great team building game or a game for a message.
First take a picture, maybe from a magazine or print one off, and cut it up into small squares. These could be youth group pictures you’ve taken over the years. Make as many of these cut up pictures as you have teams and it can be the same picture or different pictures.
Once the teams have passed ever piece of paper down the line, and on to a table, they can begin to put the picture back together again. Firs team who puts their puzzle together, wins.
Good and Gross! This can be be one with the cups in paper bags if you don’t want to be too fancy.
Team Builder!
