Budget/Cooking Activity
ACTIVITY: The girls were divided into teams, I had 2 teams of three girls each. I explained to them that they were freshman at BYU and each team were roommates. I explained a bit about how family home evening groups are set up at college and that they were just told that their new FHE brothers had invited themselves over…
Family dinner
Young women can learn the value of budgeting, with this activity. Each young woman needs to bring, or be given, at least Five dollars. With this five dollars the group will go to the grocery store, and try to buy a whole meal for the family. It works well to make it a competition. Who can get the most food…
Scripture Basketball
Divide the youth into 2 teams, each facing the other in chairs on the keylines of the gym floor (we had enough for 4 teams and used both ends of the gym) Tthe teams are given a clue to a scripture and told to begin (seminary students rock at this game, try to divide them up evenly between teams) As…

We held this activity outside while the weather was still good but you could certainly modify it for indoor use too. The kids were in teams of 4-6 and all events were timed. Each team was given a time sheet to record their score…
House Wife Olympics
Take normal everyday household activities, and use them to compete in. For example: 4 man table setting relay, speed ironing, competition clothes sorting and so on. Make up rules for your events. Set up the events and plan an awards ceremony. It is a good activity to invite the young women to.
D.I.P party
D.I.P stands for Divine Inspiration through Prayer. We started the evening by welcoming everyone and thanking them for their participation.

Then he began to recount several times in Church History where individuals were inspired to make changes or to make…
Ice Blocking
Have the youth bring their own towels and have the leaders provide several blocks of ice. Go to a grassy park with hills or somewhere else with grassy hills. Youth take turns sliding down the hills on blocks of ice. Hilariously good game to play on hot summer evenings. ** This is so fun, but forbidden in some areas because…
