Use a talk show format to bring a biblical story to life! Have someone act as the talk show host and choose kids to portray the various bibical characters. You can also throw in parents, neighbors, and friends. Don’t forget to have some act as the audience. This brings the story to life and allows the kids to really relate to the characters and the situation happening in the story. An Exmpale: Joseph and the coat of many colors. You can have Joseph and his parents and brothers as the guests.

Even kids have to juggle priorities in today’s hectic and fast paced society. Choose a tossable item to represent school, church, family, friends, sports. Using at least 6 kids, form a circle and begin tossing an object across the circle forming a pattern as it goes. Keep adding items to juggle around the circle.

Discuss how difficult it is to try to juggle all these things in your life. What are the priorities in your life? What things can you cut back on to simplify your life.
