Hours of planning, researching, and crafting go into any sermon that you give, but it is hard to find the time some weeks to get it all done. You love the feeling of satisfaction of preaching YOUR OWN sermon, but some weeks, the time planning might not match up with the level at which your students are engaged. Your students deserve to hear an engaging sermon from their youth pastor who loves them. And you need to put more time back into your schedule to focus on your students, your team, and your ministry.
Arms and Legs
Your students will learn the rules of this game in a minute but want to play for hours. Use this game for full-class engagement or have just as much fun watching The Chosen One.
Have your student(s) stand facing away from the screen or blindfolded. Their task is to follow the audible cues to either raise or lower a limb. Essentially, the child has turned into a human BopIt.
Click the spacebar and the character on the screen either raises or lowers their arms and legs in this order: Right Arm, Left Arm, Right Leg, Left Leg (repeat). There's a raise and lower sound effect that plays with each move. The student simply needs to listen for that cue and either raise or lower an arm/leg in the correct order to match the character on the screen. It's way harder than it sounds. Once your students become pros, you can add more players! Hitting the spacebar will cycle through each player before returning to the first!
