Here's a game I came up with yesterday for our Wednesday PM programming.
Our memory verse is Philippians 4:4-9 and we learned verse 9 last night.
I wrote every word of the verse on separate pieces of paper.
Then I put each word into a plastic egg.
I hid the eggs all over the upstairs where we meet.
I then wrote out verse 4-8 on posterboard (the verses we had already learned) so the kids could read it aloud together and tagged on verse 9.
Verse 9 looked like this:
Eerwthva uoy aveh ndelaer ro cieedrev ro herad ofrm em, ro nese ni em-ptu ti otni tiepcrac dan het odg fo ecpae iwll eb hitw ouy.
So naturally, when the kids got to verse 9, they couldn't read it.
We found it in the Bible and read it a few times.
Then it was time to find the eggs!
As the kids found the eggs, they brought them to another piece of poster board with lines representing each word.
They looked at the scrambled up verse 9 and tried to figure out which word they had.
They then had to put their word from the egg they found in the correct spot.
After about 10 or 15 minutes, they got the verse!
I call the game...
Scrambled Eggs!
It's great because they work together to unscramble their words and put them in the correct order.
It requires repetition in reciting the verse and teamwork.
Pretty fun times here at Sunshine Community Church!
