I am the Miamaid Counselor in my ward and we were in charge of the combined YM/YW activity this week. Since I spent so much time scouring the internet and putting all the pieces together for this, I thought I would put it out to Google for some other youth leader to use as needed. I tend to overplan, so you can take or leave all of this information as you wish:

First, I created invites on www.canva.com, which is my all time favorite website for creating invitations or any kind. If you want to download mine, here is the JPG and you can add your text on top however you choose. For what it is worth, I am a FIRM believer that the more hype you put into an activity on the front end, the more the kids make it a priority to come, and also to bring their friends. I handed these out on the Sunday before and told the kids if they were coming to the activity to come find me later at church and tell me they would be there and I would give them a small treat (chocolate, obviously).

Side note: This was a well attended activity!
