Take two or three of your folks. and give them cans of silly string. while having another group put on garbage bags. (cut holes for the arms and head first) then put them on opposite sides of the youth room, with one specific Bag Person associated to a specific Can Person, You should have 3 or so "one vs. one" setups (hopefully, with lots of innocent bystanders in the middle, watching) then they say "go!" the goal for the ones with the cans try to cover their corresponding bag person with silly string. the bag person just tries not to get sprayed.
There are two winners: the one who sprayed the most string onto there target Bag person: the other winner is the bag person with the least amount of string on them. A lot of the fun of this game isn't just the spraying that hits the right people. but the frantic off target shot of string that hit everyone watching as the ones wearing bags are running around. the only thing to remember is there will be some cleanup afterwards. and you have to be willing to speak to a group of teens in a room covered in strings. but you knew that you would have to do that ever now and then when you signed up for youth ministry anyway right? right.
But remember Mr. Youth Pastor, in some places possession of Silly String is prohibited because it is, of course a very dangerous weapon in the wrong hands. please consult your local ordinances and respond accordingly.
