Santa’s little helpers volunteered their time to spice up the classic Llama Llamalong game, by suiting the llamas up like Christmas elves! Fa La Llama Llamalong adds a great change up for those ministries that regularly play Llama Llamalong, but works great on its own. Students pick up on the rules quickly, but mastering it? Not so simple. Also, did we mention this youth group game takes no-prep and it gets more fun every time your ministry plays it? Fa La Llama Llamalong is most fun to play when your youth group has a weekly Fa La Llama Llamalong Champion. Each week, bring a student up to beat the highest score. If they do it, they become the new champ until someone beats their score, or until New Years.

The England Patriots don’t play fair, and they have five Super Bowls!
