HIGH ENERGY GAME Which Direction? Have siblings all start in the middle of the room. This area will be called Central. Designate your North, South, East, and West. These will be the directions that students must run to. As a group the Sibs will shout, “Which Direction?” Sibs must wait to hear the call of the leader for the instructions and then run the route that he shouts out accordingly. All directions must be physically touched to be completed. And participants must go the correct route in order to win. For example - North, South, Central, and back to North, must be completed in that specific order. At the beginning, you can do two or three practice rounds. After these practice rounds, the player who makes it last to the final destination on the route(s) will be out. They will return to Central to be a part of the distraction committee. As the distraction committee, you are allowed to throw soft objects at the remaining participants to take them off course and bring more fun to the game.

INTENTIONAL SIBLING ACTIVITY Me, My Sibling(s), and I PART 1: INTRODUCING US
This Activity is meant to establish an introduction and description of the relationship of a Sib, their brother or sister with a disability, other siblings in the home, and the unique relationship that they possess within their family. It is a simple way to begin processing the life of being a Sib in their respective family. ME: The “Me” section intends to establish and honor the Sibling as an individual. It gives them a moment to shine and tell a little about themselves. Siblings often face the possible reality of being overlooked, under-appreciated, and neglected. Although not always the case, and most likely not intentional, it is very important that siblings are given moments of autonomy and dignity- a place and space to be themselves. MY SIBLING: The “My Sibling” section gives Sibs an opportunity to describe their siblings on their own terms. Giving them a moment to honor, confess, enjoy, describe, and highlight the joys and challenges of relating with their sibling with a disability (and other siblings in their family). The goal here is to have Sibs begin to process their relationship with their brother or sister with a disability in a way that gives them shape, context, words, feelings, and intentionality to their sibling connection. I: The “I” section is directed to talk about the shared dynamics of Sibs and their brother or sister with a disability. Specifically, sibs will answer “I statements” to describe their unique relationships with their brother or sister. Such statements are meant to highlight the pros and cons of their relationship, strengthen the bond between siblings, and create an audio-visual narrative for Sibs to understand and process in their own terms.
Siblings will answer these particular questions this week: ME: 1. In your own words, who are you? (This question is meant to be open ended) 2. Three words that describe you. MY SIBLING: 1. In your own words, who is your brother or sister with a disability? 2.Three words that describe your sibling with a disability. I:WHO 1. I love this about my sibling… 2. I sometimes get annoyed by this particular thing with my sibling…
LOW ENERGY GAME Bird, Beast, or Fish You have to think fast for this game. 1. Everyone sits facing the leader. 2.

The chosen player must come up with the name of an animal that fits the category before the leader counts to five. 4. No repeating! 5. If the player does not respond in time, he/she is out. 6. The game continues until only one player remains. 7. After a few rounds it can be hard to think of an animal that has not already been mentioned! 8. You can make a new set of categories if you want and continue playing the game.

POWS AND WOWS Emoticons While sitting in a circle have every person draw and describe something that made them laugh, smile, or happy this week? And what was something that made them sad, mad, or cry?
HIGH ENERGY GAME Octaball 1. The object of the game is to be the last player in the arena. Google Octaball to watch video overviews if you are not familiar. 2. All players start in the arena. A designated person throws the ball off an inside wall and yells “OCTA!” This is called the serve and this starts the game! (Note: No player can get out on the serve). 3. The ball should now be in constant motion. It cannot be caught, grabbed, stepped on or any other creative thing people can come up with to stop the ball. 4. All that needs to happen for a player to be out is for the ball to hit them from the waist down. This can be caused by other players inside the arena hitting the ball with their hands (not kicking it otherwise they would be out) to project it towards other players; or for “out” players along the outside of the arena to reach in and hit the ball to project it at an “in” player. If an “out” player successfully hits an “in” player, the “out” player can come back into the arena while the player, who was in, goes out.
5. The ball can be blocked by a player's hands; but a player can only touch the ball once before they have to let it bounce off the wall or let another player hit it. 6. The ball is always live inside the arena. The ball only becomes dead when projected over the walls. However, the last person to have touched the ball before it went outside the arena is out themselves. To reinitiate play a player throws the ball off the wall and yells “OCTA!” just as in the beginning. As in the beginning no player can get out on the “serve”.

7. The game ends when there is only one player left.

INTENTIONAL SIBLING ACTIVITY Cross the Line SIBLINGS VERSION Using tape, set up two lines on opposite sides of the room. Ask everyone to gather on one side of the room/line and face towards its center. A facilitator will call out specific categories/labels/descriptions, and ask that all of those to whom this applies to walk to the other side of the room/line. For example, a facilitator might request that anyone with glasses please cross the room. If an individual feels comfortable acknowledging it, they cross the line to the other side of the room/line. See Appendix for examples of cross the line questions. Once the individuals have crossed the line they will be asked to turn and face the crowd they just left. Let them get in touch with their feelings and think about those people on both sides, then return to the side they started from. After a few seconds, continue with a new question. Remind people that there is no pressure to cross the room/line if one does not feel comfortable doing so. They will need to make that decision. At the conclusion of the activity, discuss what was felt and what was learned. Engage students to understand the similarities and differences of their sibling experience, disability experience, and human experience. Ex: Cross the line if… Your favorite color is blue You think that summer is the best season You have been picked on or bullied at school You failed a test in school You go to this school ______ You have been angry at your parents Add sibling related questions
LOW ENERGY GAME Grandma's  Underpants One person is "it" and stands in the middle of the circle. The people on the outside of the circle ask the "it" questions.

MINUTE TO WIN IT
HIGH ENERGY GAME Ninja Ninja is a game like Tag involving a group of people. The object of the game is to avoid having your hand touched or slapped, thus getting eliminated, and be the last Ninja standing. To begin the game, everyone gets in a tight circle, shoulder-to-shoulder, with their hands in the middle. On the count of three, they shout out “1-2-3 Ninja!!!� and jump back into a "Ninja" pose. One-by-one and continuing counter-clockwise, each person takes a turn being the attacker and tries to touch another person's hand in a single "Ninja" move. The attackee, to avoid being touched, reacts with a single Ninja move. Only the attacker and attackee may move; all others remain frozen. Whether missing, successfully hitting or avoiding, only a single Ninja move is permitted and both must stay frozen in that pose. If a person's hand is touched, they must leave the circle. The player to the right automatically goes next and may choose to attack any other player. The person who is aimed for doesn't go next; the next person is always to the right of the person who just went. The game ends when only one person remains. Whether missing, successfully hitting or avoiding, only one Ninja move is permitted and one must stay in that pose. The person to the right of the person who started the previous round starts the next round.

HIGH ENERGY GAME Rock, Paper and Scissors Tag On a large playing field, split the group into two teams. Make sure there is a halfway point that is recognizable. In the back of each team's side, make sure there is another "end zone" area that is recognizable. Teams will huddle up and decide which of the rock, paper, or scissors moves they will do. When both teams have decided, they approach the center line and with the help of the facilitator, they all say "Rock... Paper... Scissors... shoot" together and perform their action (it can be fun to have the actions much bigger than normal - such as their whole bodies turning into rocks, or giant scissors, or big pieces of paper). Whatever team wins can immediately begin chasing the other team, attempting to tag them. The team that lost tries to run back to their "end zone" as quickly as possible. If they make it there without being tagged, they are safe. If they get tagged, they must join the other team. The game usually does not end up with one team having everyone and so the facilitator must use his or her discretion of when to end the game. The 3 rock, paper, scissors moves are: Rock beats scissors. Scissors beats paper. Paper beats rock.
March INTENTIONAL SIBLING ACTIVITY Feelings  Charades  Each Sibling has to write a list of ten types of feelings on strips of paper. Try to encourage them to do the most distinct and diverse range of emotions. Then they will throw all their written feelings into a hat. Each group will take turns trying to act out and guess as many feelings as possible within a minute. At the end of a few rounds have students 1. Write out the feeling that most describe their current situation. 2. Describe how they can tell differences of the varying emotions. 3. How Jesus helps us with our different emotions.
LOW ENERGY GAME Freeze Three players start by acting out an event. At any point, an audience member can yell "freeze" and the actors must freeze where they are. That audience member then comes on stage, taps the shoulder of the person to swap with, and the audience member then becomes an actor, assuming their role. The new member must be the first one to talk and must change the scene in some way. (Example: Three people are acting out a football game. An audience member yells freeze, takes the place of the person throwing the football, and then starts the scene as if she is about to throw the flowers at a wedding.)

May Supplies Needed:
Deck of Cards, Cut watermelon
ICEBREAKER Would You Rather? Start out by dividing teens into two teams, having each team go on opposite sides of the room, or the party area. Then, have an adult read out questions that have two answers to them. For example, the question could be, “Would you rather eat a bug or starve.” When reading the question, the reader points to one side of the room for “bug” and the other side for “starve.” Then, teens have to race to switch sides depending upon their answer. Make sure you have a lot of fun “Would you rather…” questions for this game. Teens will enjoy getting to know others as they see what they have in common with other guests.
MINUTE TO WIN IT Card Ninja 1) Place the half watermelon so that the pink side is perpendicular to the ground. 2) When the clock starts, player may begin tossing cards 1 at a time at the watermelon while standing behind the foul line. 3) To complete the game, player must stick 1 card into the watermelon within the 60-second time limit so that it stays that way for 3 seconds. Bonus Tips 1) Make sure you use cards that are rigid enough to stick. The .99 cent pack may not do! 2) The bigger the watermelon, the better. It makes it easier for people to hit the target. 3) Do a test run for the game. Make sure that you don’t set participants too far away from the melon. 4) Instead of having them stick the card first, pit teams against each other and see how many they can get in one minute. We played Jr. High versus High School. Our Jr. High students smoked the High Schoolers! 5) Have extra decks of cards… they go fast! 6) Eat the watermelon. Please don’t waste it.
