Sticky Gooey Party

I am in Young Womens and have the best leaders who always have the craziest ideas. For our combined activity this month we had a pool party with sticky events.

First, the kids had to sit 3 feet from each other and feed each other pudding by flicking it with a spoon.
Next we were supposed to fingerpaint on butcher paper but the kids went crazy with the pudding and it pretty much got out of control from there. Austin kept screaming at everyone telling them they were being NAUGHTY!!!!




Then they had to pour pop into a bottle resting on their partner's belly.

And yes, I swam in the disgusting root beer and pudding and who knows what corrupted pool. The things you do for your kids. I want to bathe in disinfectant now.





Me and one of my YW Jenna. The last activity the kids were supposed to build ice cream sundaes on the leader's heads!! Which is why I didn't do my hair and it's crazy with the humidity. Luckily we ran out of time. I love YW!

What a fun activity! I would have loved to see the ice cream sundae one, bummer you ran out of time. Maybe we'll steal the idea and use it in our ward...well, we don't really go to activities, but this one we would.

That looks so fun. I am always looking for fun YW combined activities. I do feel bad for whomever's pool got to get that goo in it.

Are we really old enough to be YW leaders?

Oh my heavens! Who was in charge of clean-up?

Austin is hilarious! I can totally see him doing that. And why can't my hair look like that when I haven't done it in all this humidity. My hair just looks fried. It looks like you had so much fun!

no way! That's awesome! What cool leaders you guys are. I'll remember these ideas for if I ever get back to YW from Primary. I'm pretty sure I'm destined for scouts with 2 boys though.

Lauren Tatton said...

That sounds so fun! You are the best YW leader ever! You are awesome!

Elisha said...

How creative! I love those type of activities! I have to admit though, the last one would've been hilarious to see!

Brooke said...

That is a fun idea....although I wouldn't volunteer my house to do it at! I bet your girls love you! I love YW also!

I have that t-shirt. When I got the coupon in the mail, I ran out and bought some ice cream so I could have the t-shirt. The chocolate sauce looks fun.
