We put together a list of the best youth group games you can do on Zoom (or whatever

platform you use).

I went in our Facebook group to find the best ideas shared by youth ministry leaders.

So, here goes:

1. 15 ZOOM GAMES BY CIY

Go here to download the 15 free games published by Christy in Youth CIY. And if
you’ve never heard of CIY, learn more about them here.

I’ve been a big fan of them years.

2. HOME SCAVENGER HUNT

As you probably already know, Home Scavenger Hunts are really popular right now.

There are many variations of how to do it. Here are two:

Option #1

• Give students a list of items around the house to get, and assign each item a
certain number points.
• Students have 15 minutes to grab those items.
• Whoever has the most points wins.
• You can come up with your own list of items, or use this one below:
A big shout out to Megan Johnson, who shared that list with our Facebook group
community!
 Option #2

• Same basic idea as option #1, with a slight difference.

• You name one item at a time, allow students 1 minute (or whatever time you
want) to find that item in their house, and return to their computer with it.
• First player to do so, gets a point.
• Student with the most points at the end wins.

3. PHOTO SCAVENGER HUNT

Combine as many items as possible into 1 picture and text it to the leader. First to
respond with the most points wins!

Feel free to modify the items on the list:

 4. KAHOOT

Go here to learn more about Kahoot.

You basically use it to create a trivia game with students. You come up with the
questions.

Here’s the basic idea:

• Come up with a list of trivia questions. You can even use questions (or complete
Kahoot’s) submitted by other users on their website (or app).
• Host a live game with questions you post on Zoom or share a game with remote
players.
• Game on! Everyone joins the Kahoot with a PIN provided by the host and answer
questions on your device.
• There is a free version, which will do for most of you. And of course, you can
upgrade to a paid account for more features.

Go here to get all the details about Kahoot.
