My favorite toys

Having some playthings always available is valuable for youth ministry.

I keep many of these in my backpack so they are with me always, just in case.

• Flying disc (of course) -- any kind or many kinds including pie pans
• Koosh balls www.kooshball.com -- a hairy ball without a core. You can peg someone with it and it doesn't hurt but you can throw it hard and fast and long. Good for indoors and outdoors and a variety of games.
• Spot markers – indoor or outdoor bases, landing spots, flying disk golf  targets, parking place for circle games such as musical chairs, indoor flying disc.
• Plastic table cloths – Although they work ok as table cloths, they make great snow sleds, bibs for messy games, screens, wall decorations and bulletin board covers
• Anything from Klutz www.klutz.com (Be sure you have their two volume Encyclopedia of Immaturity)
