This is one where you get the crowd. Pick three kids and send them out of the room. Your last kid is a plant. Bring them in one at a time blindfold them and ask them to figure out what the three objects are (a dirty sock, an onion and a live mouse). They have the choice to “taste it, touch it, or smell it” to figure it out. Your first two kids will usually stay safe and say smell or touch, when you bring out the mouse show it well to the first kid, and then cup it in your hands with just the nose out for the second kid. The third kid is your wild kid, a plant on this skit. Get the crowd to start chanting “taste it” each time and he/she chooses taste it. They lick the sock, bite the onion, and then the third time when you reach in the box for the mouse have marshmallows with a fake blood capsule (any costume store) inside with a licorice tail. Cup the “fake mouse” in your hands and move quickly to shove it in his/her mouth. They chew it up, let a little blood drool down and when the crowd quiets, he/she says (as if it’s no big deal…) “a mouse?”

Spell My Feet
Take five people and have them take off their shoes and socks.

On the first person put an A and a N (one letter on each foot), on the next an E and a T, then GR,

Low-Budget Karaoke
Tell the kids that it's Karaoke Night, and 3 lucky people will have a chance to show off their musical talent. Unfortunately, there were budget cuts from the home office in "Your area", and we couldn't afford any type of Karaoke machine. So instead, each "volunteer" will have to sing their song using a walkman instead. Have kids sing along to the music they are listening to. The other kids in club can't hear the music, only the wailing of each singer.

Hair Style Through Nylons
Select several guys with moderately long hair (but not more than 5 or 6 inches...) Select several girls to be the "stylists". Each boy pulls a nylon stocking over his head completely covering his hair but allowing his face to still show. The stylists then begin poking toothpicks through the nylon hose and pulling out tufts of hair. The most bizarre hairstyle wins the contest! I've had several guys wear their new hairstyle all night long! What a hoot!

Car Stuff
Explain inside before going outside to driveway. Competition between sexes and classes. 30 seconds to get as many into, (not on) a small car. Then pull them out and count. Remover rear-view mirror before. So fast it doesn’t hurt the car, honest!

Balloon Gauntlet
Girls are given rolled up newspapers, and they are lined up in two single file lines. The two lines are parallel, facing each other with approximately three to four feet between them. The boys tie balloons to their pant belt loops and must "run the gauntlet". That is, they must run between the two lines of girls who try to pop the balloons by hitting them with the newspapers. The object is to see which boy(s) can avoid having their balloon popped.

Balloon Defense
Two bags of balloons, each a different color. Form two teams of 25 to 50 each. Each team must defend its treasure (a pile of balloons) while attempting to steal or destroy the other team's treasure. Use one color of balloons for one team, and another color for the other team. Designate a time period (5 to 10 minutes) to play the game. When the time ends, each team's unpopped balloons count 100 points each. Stolen, unpopped balloons count 200 points each.

Alka-Seltzer On The Head Duel
You may play this game as a quick up-front game or even as a 4-person tournament. 2 contestants, each armed with a squirt gun, will take five paces and turn to duel. On each of their foreheads, you will have attached an Alka-seltzer tablet with double stick tape (possibly use big rubber bands if tape doesn’t work). They draw and shoot the water at each other, the first one to dissolve the tablet on the other's forehead wins. Use swim goggles for each to protect their eyes. The tablet will fizz and foam all over the place.
Have towels close by for clean-up. A cheesy western song (think Clint Eastwood or Lone Ranger) and some “cowboys” or “cowgirls” add to this one.
