TAKE THE PLUNGE VBS

Today is going to be a awesome week for our children. From June 5-8th is Vacation Bible School at our church. I'm helping out with the 3 yr old class. At 8:00am I'm doing breakfast witht he babies and getting them all washed up til 9:00. Our theme this year is Take the Plunge. Each day we have differnt take the plunges and they are Plunge into Courage, Faith, Service, and Obedience. We have a singing time were they watch a video of children playing at a water park and singing praise songs. Anna loves the song where she jumps and she swings her hands so much. Then we have a Bible Story and then we all separate into our classes. The Bible stories we talked about this week are, Jesus walks on the water, The one about the desiciples casting there nets on the other side, the disciples washing Jesus's feet and I forgot the other one. They did some fun crafts that has to deal with water. They made flippers, a water bottle ocean, and a photo card with their photo on it just to name a few. Then they went outside and played for awhile and then they came back in and we had a activity along with the story. ON Thursday they had a sprinkler day and Anna did not want to go in. She said,"mommy the water gets in my eyes," and started craying. So she played on the slide. We also collected cans for a food bank drive and build a castle. I had a really fun time being with the children and teaching them about Jesus and to show service to them. Then we closed with more singing. I think they learned alot about courage, faith, service and obidence. It will be a week I will never forget.
