Bible Story: (found under Make it True) This week the story is also easy to tell if you follow the Bible story in the curriculum.  There are a few props to use which will make it fun. 
   
Activities: (Make it Stick and Make it Fun) comments about some of the activities:

Let me know what supplies you will need if you need help from me!

  • Who needs Jesus: Fun game that you roll a "crafted" dice.
  • We need it: Kids love pulling things out of a bag. Another easy game. 
  • Linked by Love: This game sounds really cute and no supplies necessary.
  • Let's Go:  This is a make-believe game...You could think about taking a field trip around the building to different "make believe destinations."

Monthly theme: Jesus loves everyone.

Announcements: 
  • Lots of "love" activities for this Sunday!
  • Remember to wear your stick on name tags that are kept in the black binder.  It is great for parents to connect a face and a name. 
Curriculum:  Week 3 of 4:  Unloved woman

February Scripture:  Please go over scripture each week with the motions  
  "Love each other as I have loved you"  John 15:12.


Prayer Time: #1 in our top 10:   Ask the kids what you can pray about and lead them in prayer.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True) Easy story to tell.  Might want to use the "I can see the Story" activity to actually tell the story.  (There are pictures in the activity pages.)

 Activities: (Make it Stick and Make it Fun) comments about some of the activities:

Let me know what supplies you will need if you need help from me!

  • Musical Hearts: Fun, easy, game to do with some music playing.
  • Popsicle puzzles and Where is my other half:  Both fun games, where kids have to find a match with someone in the room.  We have string and can copy hearts on red paper, and we have popsicle sticks.
  • Message from the heart: One of my favorites this week.  I am going to make copies of this to have for all rooms and you don't have to use if you don't want, because we can use other places.  Hearts need to be cut out, etc. So I am going to go ahead and prepare this.
  • Faces of love:   I love games where the kids can listen to scenarios and decide how they would act/react.  I don't have happy/sad face stickers here, but they can draw their own happy or sad face.

Monthly theme: Jesus loves everyone.

Announcements: 
  •  This month starts a new theme! yeah...Take a minute and watch the preview video.
  • Remember to wear your stick on name tags that are kept in the black binder.  It is great for parents to connect a face and a name. 
  • Lots of great activities to choose from this week.
Curriculum:  Week 2 of 4:  Zacchaeus

February Scripture:  Please go over scripture each week with the motions  
  "Love each other as I have loved you"  John 15:12. (motions are in activity pages this week.)

Prayer Time: #1 in our top 10:   Ask the kids what you can pray about and lead them in prayer.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True) Fun way they are telling the story this week.  If you have a dry erase board at home you can use it.  Otherwise, I think a stack of paper would work just fine.  Draw something and then get a fresh new piece for the next picture.  This is a fun story!  The reason Jesus wants us to know this story is that he does love us even when we make wrong choices. 

 Activities: (Make it Stick and Make it Fun) comments about some of the activities:

Let me know what supplies you will need if you need help from me!

  • Help the tree find its leavs:I have a tree already printed on 11X14 paper you can use.  Let me know if you need a tree copy or  copies of the leaves. 
  • Jesus loves everyone: We have a rice table you can use.  Maybe you have little figurine people at home.  If not, we can find some here.
  • Giving you my hearts: You make a treat bag of conversation hearts with this craft.  We have paper bags and I can supply the conversation hearts.  Let me know!
  • Who can you love:   This is a fun musical chairs game. You can use any music.
  • Zacchaues' Tree:  Also another fun easy craft.  We have larger 11X14 paper u can use for this.
