Reverence Combined Activity

I am posting this for my purposes only; The Mia Maids were in charge of a combined YW/ YM activity in February which needed to focus on Reverence, after much deliberation and meetings with my presidency this is what we came up with:
The leaders acted out a a very ad-lib skit about all the kinds of irreverence we are too used to being around when we attend Sunday Church or Weekday church activities, We had the following adult leaders doing the following things.
Gum Chewing and popping, game playing, texting, food passing around, walking around, leaving the room constantly, know it all, tickling backs, laying on the floor, feet on chairs, falling asleep, throwing papers, are we done yet?
This went on for about 10 minutes, quite the entertainment for the youth and then the youth were put into 10 teams of 7 and they had to make a Reverence Mormon-ad (Poster) to display in the church as to what we need to be doing to show reverence with the church buildings.
(Now, a little disclaimer, we have over 100 youth and we had 73 show up for the activity, so yes it was loud and crazy, but during the skit - they were awesome.)
The activity turned out awesome and all the kids had a great time! I was really proud of the girls and leaders who helped put this all together!
