Additionally, the proctors are there to administrate the game.

The amazing race music how to#
It’s up to the teams to figure out how to accomplish each Task. Teams make decisions on their own: Clues instruct the teams where to go next and what to do at the next Task. Clues instruct the teams where to go next and what to do at the next Task. Teammates must arrive at each Task together in order to check in. If one teammate needs to go to the bathroom the team must wait until they are assembled again before continuing. VERBAL INSTRUCTIONS TO THE TEAMS: Teammates must race the entire race together they cannot split up (except when instructed to do so temporarily by a clue) or continue on without each other. Winners received a medal made from a Ding Dong and a ribbon. They had to have all members of their team on the rug and all of their clues to turn in (some teams had to go look for theirs) before I would check them in. I brought a rug from home to use as the “Pit Stop”. You could do this with Book of Mormon or even pictures of the Latter-Day prophets. Some used the songs to help them, some asked their leaders for their phones to look them up online – which was okay according to the rules as long as the leader did not suggest the idea. The youth had to put both books of scripture into the correct order to receive their clue. Scriptures: In this activity we had typed up all of the books of the Old Testament and cut them up into individual slips and put them in an envelope. When the design matched the original they would receive their next clue. The person at the other end would have a tub of blocks to use and would have to re-create the design just by being told what to do.

This person would tell the teammate behind them what blocks to use and how to set them up, then they would tell the next person and so on. Only one person could look at the pattern. The team had to stretch out length wise through the room we were in. Team Work: I put a bunch of pattern blocks or building blocks in a design (keep it easy, it’s a pretty hard activity) and put them on a table. When they did, the proxy (leader or parent helper) gave them their next clue. They then had to work together to unscramble and put the scripture in the right order. However, I mixed the words up so when they were done translating they just had a bunch of English words that didn’t make sense. They had to translate each letter to figure out the word. I typed up a scripture on service then changed the font to wingdings. Translation: here the youth had to “translate” a quote from the scriptures.

Maybe next time I’d add something in the church to do: wipe down nursery toys, clean windows, etc. The only complaint from the youth was that they wanted to serve more. Manipulating the clues for each team to go somewhere different each time got tricky and a little messed up – it was probably the hardest part of the prep. I tried to set it up so that different teams went to different challenges, just so that one activity would not be overwhelmed. Next, they would arrive at the church to complete 3 other activities.
