Save by planning a KidShine camp for next summer!
|
 If you're looking for an exciting program for the kids in your community next summer, join the growing list of churches hosting KidShine camps across the U.S. KidShine is five days of performing arts fun - music, drama, dance, puppets and scenery painting - but it's much more than that. It's a week of laughter and praise, centered around the joy that comes from being part of God's family. The camp ends on Friday evening with a final performance that will leave you amazed. Parents are looking for quality summer programs for their kids, so your church has the opportunity to meet a need and make a powerful impact in the community through a KidShine camp. There are two hosting options - a KidShine team can direct the camp for you, or you can use your own leadership team. Either way, your church gets a great week of camp and your kids get an experience they'll never forget. It's one week in the year and one programming option among many, but giving children an opportunity to shine can truly be life-changing. Request hosting and pricing details!
Book your camp by November 25 for the biggest savings:
- $500 discount on hosting fee
- $500 camper scholarship credit
- $50 discount on camper registration fee (through 12/31)

How to Teach Sport Stacking
|
 Kidology founder Karl Bastian has been introducing Sport Stacking to his local Awana Club. He notes that it's "not only a magnet for kids, but a super relational tool for interacting with them at church."
Over on Kidologist.com, Karl put together a video of tips to help you introduce this sport, especially now that it's a optional part of Awana Game Time.
In the video, you will see interactions with both Sparks and TnT, showcasing the differences between them.

| Looking bright for The Stars of Christmas |
Four sitcom-style episodes feature a Grammy-style awards show hosted by the arrogant Colton Storm. Your kids will hear the entire biblical Christmas story as Colton interviews people that "starred" in the amazing account of Jesus' birth.
Each episode points to the fact that Jesus is the one true "Star" of Christmas. Join Mary, the Shepherds, the Wise Men, and even terrible King Herod as they share their encounter with Baby Jesus before taking the stage to perform a classic Christmas carol.
The Stars of Christmas is a revolutionary four-week, K-5 curriculum that delivers creative, Biblical content in a uniquely interactive, teacher-driven format.

Gimmie Thanksgiving Game Ideas!
|
Gimmie! Gimmie! Thanksgiving is a fast-paced, holiday trading game that illustrates thankfulness vs. selfishness.
Ideal for just a few kids as well as large groups, the object is to collect a complete set of Thanksgiving cards, while avoiding the greedy Gimmie! Gimmie!
Hectic fun unfolds as players shout "Two! Two!" and other combinations of cards to trade, all while working to build a matched set in the time allotted.
Adapted by Karl Bastian as a solution for understaffed volunteer situations around the holidays, this Gimmie! Gimmie! game provides an interactive object lesson while requiring just a few leaders to run.
» Just $5.99 in the Kidology Store!
