Making Worship An Important Part of Life

One area I believe we are failing our children in is the area of worship. In many of today’s churches children are separated from the main worship service. This is not a bad thing because it let’s us get it down to their level. The problem is we will teach them a lesson they can understand, but leave out other parts of worship. Personally, I believe that the message or lesson is a form of worship but I also believe that music is a form of worship. We seem to have this thing about teaching children songs only on certain occasions. We need to be teaching our children songs to praise and worship God every week. Make it an important part of their life so they grow up understanding that God gave us a gift of music not to curse but to praise his name. We need to teach them what the Psalms are and how we still can use them in worship today.

Memory Verse Relay

Here is a fun way to teach the memory verse or scripture verse to your Sunday school Class. Place a word or words from the verse inside deflated balloons (make sure there is enough for your class) and then blow them up. Hand one balloon to each child. Divide them into teams and have one chair per team. When you say go a child from each team runs toward their chair and places the balloon on the seat, they try to pop their ballon by sitting on it when they do they retrieve the paper from their balloon and return to their team and the next child in line starts.
