Horseshoes
- Players: 2 – 4
- Duration: 20 - 40 min
- Average cost: $8
How to play
Plant two stakes about 30 feet apart (closer for casual play). Players take turns pitching two horseshoes at the far stake. A ringer — the shoe wrapping the stake — scores three points; the closest shoe within a hand's width of the stake scores one. Only one player scores per round: cancel out matching throws, then count the difference. First to 21 wins. Use rubber horseshoe sets for indoor or family play. Keep bystanders well behind the pitcher.

Bible Quiz
A simple bible quiz is a great way to help kids comprehend bible passages and stories. It can be used a tool for learning in small groups, an ice breaker for a big group or maybe as a round in a quiz night. The questions in the quiz could be general questions from all over the bible, or could be restricted to a particular bible story or passage. This is up to you to work out what will serve your youth group best. It works really well in the setting on an "introduction night" for the series/book you're about to start working through. It can be done at the end of the session to test and remind the kids of what has been discussed. The questions used in the bible quiz can be simple answer questions, multiple choice and true or false. Or you can get creative - maybe use a PowerPoint presentation to display some graphical questions as well. You could do the quiz as an "open bible" quiz which will encourage kids to be using their bibles to find answers as you go and is a good way to help kids "get to know" their bibles.
