We have such a mix of littles and middle aged groups.
This will work perfectly! I found a few on here that are perfect! Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Thanks SO very much! Thanks so much for this! Thank you! This was awesome. Do you use play time as a reward for good behavior or as part of your plan to build relationships in the group? Do you always related the activities back to scripture? Leave a comment below and help other readers too!
Thank you so much! This is very helpful tool for our Sunday school Ministry. God bless you and your family. This site has been very helpful especially the lesson plans and games. Thanks and may God reward your input. Thank you so very much. As I am blessed, you and your family will be blessed more abundantly. This is a game we created in VBS to use with a lesson about Christ as our substitute.
We played it outside but can be adapted for indoors. The object is for each kid to complete a circuit of actions with several stations. The actions must be selected so that at least one will be impossible for each child and they will need a substitute. They cannot move onto the next station in the circuit unless they or the substitute completes the task at the current station.
Whenever a child cannot complete an action, they can call a substitute to do it. The idea is to have things that only small kids can do, such as putting their hand through a tiny opening to retrieve an object be sure their hand can easily be released , riding a tiny tricycle, etc…things only strong kids can do tossing a horseshoe , things only coordinated or limber kids can do hula hoop, hitting a golf ball , tall kids touch something high up , small kids crawl under a low stool , intellectual kids reading or a mental puzzle.
Care must be taken to have at least one task that each participant can excel at. No one must be humiliated. If teaching Christ as substitute, make the point that just as each child needed a substitute at some point to finish the circuit, so we need Christ as our substitute. If teaching the body of Christ, emphasize that each person has a place in the body of Christ and each needs the others for a fully functioning church. I want to thank you for all your great ideas.
Tell kids that God wants us to experience joy every day through fun and laughter. Bible Connect: 1 Corinthians ; Ephesians Play: Form groups of eight. One child stands in the middle, crosses his or her arms, and tries to keep his or her feet firmly in place on the ground while the circle presses in.
Kids in the circle work together to force the child to give up his or her ground. Give every child a chance to be in the middle. Cool Down: Have kids discuss how they experience peer pressure at school. Kids can brainstorm how they can work together to tackle negative peer pressure.
Talk about the importance of relying on God when the pressure is on. Play: Before kids arrive, place one sticker on the back of each lock. Hide the locks in the room. Form two teams and give each team the scrambled combination numbers. The first team to return with an open lock will get a reward.
Once teams have chosen their strategy, give the signal. No matter which team returns with an open lock first, reward everyone for their efforts with the candy. Bible Connect: Matthew ; Romans Play: Give each child a piece of paper and a pen. Tell kids your assistant will walk around the room with a tray of items. Have your assistant walk around the room with the tray, allowing ample time for kids to write down the majority of items on the tray. Once kids have viewed the tray, have your assistant leave the room.
Then tell kids they can use their notes or memories to answer questions. Ask questions related to the assistant such as: What color were his shoes? Was she wearing earrings? Was he wearing a watch? Then call your assistant back into the room to reveal the answers. Kids will realize their focus on the tray contents was so narrow that they missed the obvious. Cool Down: Ask kids to discuss things they focus on, such as fear, jealousy, or grades.
Challenge kids to name things they may miss out on when they focus on one thing or only on the negative. Bible Connect: Proverbs ; Ephesians Play: Form groups of five and give each group a pound of each bean type. Have kids wear food-service gloves and on your signal, work together to build the largest hill of beans in five minutes.
Attach this recipe to the jar for kids to donate to a local food shelter. Cool Down: Kids can discuss how building a hill of beans is like or unlike telling a lot of lies.
Talk about what happens when lies pile up and how lying has negative consequences. Talk about how lies break trust, and ask God to help kids be honest and trustworthy. Play: Form a circle. One child will pass an apple to the right around the circle. Another child will pass an orange to the left around the circle. Kids can use their feet, elbows, or knees to pass the fruit. If someone drops the fruit or it touches the ground, the child must close his eyes to continue playing.
Play continues until only one person with his or her eyes open remains. Cool Down: Ask kids to talk about what was easy or difficult about the game. Ask kids what it was like to play with their eyes closed and how that affected the game. Thanks for your marvelous posting! I actually enjoyed reading it, you might be a great author.

I want to encourage continue your great work, have a nice holiday weekend! Love Quotes helps you rejoice, express and share love, as well as consolation a broken heart. Unfortunately we did not find these games much use to our class. We have 2 classes one aged 3 to 5 year olds and the other 6 and upwards, mixed boys and girls. We found some of the games too harsh for the younger group and the older group seemed to enjoy knocking the other children hard which resulted in quite a few tears so had to stop the class.
Thanks a lot as i was in the middle of sum crucial days…. I loved your games, I have not tried any of them with my Sunday school kids as yet. But just reading them made me feel that i could do so much more with the kids and make their learning experience something that they will look forward to. First of all thanks for sharing ur ideas to us. We will adopt in our sunday class for our Kids. God Bless ur Team and yourself.
One change for the first game; you might choose to use masking tape rather than packing tape for the sake of protecting paint on walls. Have you searched our site for games? We have s! Am always happy with your ideas, games, and i do use for my sunday school kids. God bless you together with your Team. Phylis khayanje. Thank you for these ideas. I am a pastor in a project area and I appreciate the ideas that you post for my dealing with the kids on Wednesday evenings. Secondly, I am sorry that there are some negative comments on your post as people have become so PC and less trusting in God to prevail in the scenarios of teaching.
Thank you so much for your kind encouragement!
