Games are a big part of children's ministry. And if you're like most children's ministry leaders, you're always looking for games you can use.
I came across a game website that is very popular with today's kids.
It is called Famous Birthdays. You can see it at this link.
What I love about this site are the ideas you can use to create Bible games for your ministry. Looking through the games listed and illustrated on this site will spark lots of ideas for games you can use in children's ministry. The games can be used in a large group or small group settings.
One of the great ways you can use this is for review games. Here are some of the games I like on this site that can be used for this.
GRAB THE CUP
2 kids sit or stand side-by-side
place a cup between them
ask the review question
first person who grabs the cup and says the correct answer wins
NAME 3
bring up several kids
ask them to name 3 people, places, things, animals etc. that are found in the Bible
example - ask the kids to name 3 kings in the Bible
GUESS THEIR AGE
put up the name of a Bible character
kids have to guess the person's age
put up 4 possible answers
example - Jesus went to temple at what age - 12, 11, 15, 13
WHO AM I ?
put up the names of 4 Bible characters
state something one of the characters did and kids have to guess who did it
example - I saved my people from being killed (Esther)
These are just a few of the game ideas you can find on this website. Talking about games for children's ministry - what is your favorite game to play with the kids at church? Share the game with us by posting it in the comment section below.
