Here is where you help children dive into the Bible story and experience it in
ways they’ll never forget. Kids remember what they experience, so immerse your kids in God’s Word in ways that
will touch them for eternity. Big, Big Discovery Stations Make
a craft. Review the Bible story. Draw a picture. Experience an object lesson.
The Discovery Station options help children do just that—discover God’s Word using all of
their senses. Big, Big Snacks Kids love to eat, so why
not use snack time to augment your Bible learning? Each snack in Big, Big God reinforces the
lesson’s Bible story in a fun, yummy way! Big, Big Games After kids eat, what do they
like to do? Right! Burn off some of that energy playing games! And the games in
this book are designed to help kids remember what they’ve been learning
about God. Big, Big Prayers Help your children become
comfortable talking to God. Prayers aren’t just for bedtime anymore!
Every lesson’s active prayer is designed to help children connect with
God in a special way. Big, Big Songs What’s more
heartwarming (and fun!) than hearing little voices raised
to God in a big way? Kids love to
sing, and they’ll be singing the songs in this book for a long time to
come. The lyrics for the songs are included, either in the lesson itself, or in
the back of the book for handy reference. Plus, you don’t have to be a professional
musician, because each song is either sung or has musical accompaniment on the Big, Big, God CD. Use the music to stretch a
lesson a little longer, and help kids remember Bible truths in a fun, fun way. Big, Big God Kit Take a few moments to gather the following supplies and place them in a plastic box to use with this book. That way you’ll
