ACTIVITIES

2. Application Activity –SAY: Today we are going to play a game to help us know all the pieces of God’s armor! SHOW a Bingo Card, and SAY: Each of you will get one Bingo Card. We will have Bingo markers in the middle of our group. I will show you a Card that has a picture on it, and you will look at your Bingo Card to see if you have that picture. Then you will get a marker and put it on top of the picture that matches mine. We are going to play until everyone gets all of their pictures covered up! Let’s get started! GIVE each child one Bingo Card and PLACE Bingo markers in the center of the group. SHOW and READ an Armor Card, and ALLOW kids to respond. Then, ALLOW kids to place a marker on top of  the image that matches. CONTINUE until all Armor Cards have been shown and read and kids have placed markers over all images  on their Bingo Cards. Then SAY: Great job, friends! On the count of three, let’s all say, “Bingo!” One, two, three! (Everyone will say, “Bingo!”)

That’s it! Now we know how you and I can put on God’s armor every day!

    • Let me hear you say that after me: (PAUSE to allow kids to repeat)
