- This assumes the obvious: Bible study, board games, worship and the like.
You might consider starting the event late (9 or 10 pm) for kids that have other activities or obligations that evening.
- Plan activities that require thought earlier in the event.
- Sardines and other active games in the main building is a
great middle of the night activity.
- If held in a large building and/or an old building, explore
in the middle of the night all the hidden, odd, underground, and/or
scary spaces
- Have a selection of food. You might put it out
progressively.
- Making Ice cream sundaes at 1am is a good activity. This can
be a “competitive event” (in teams) with recognition for best
looking, best tasting, most creative, etc.
- You need something memorable for each Lock-in. This can be a
trip somewhere, a scavenger hunt of some sort, go to a midnight
showing of a movie together.
- Indoor frisbee miniature golf
Have someone bring a couple of (boring) movies to put on after 2am. Most kids will conk out.
- Go out for breakfast.
