Hungry Worm Bible Lesson Review Game – Younger Children
The teacher lays out leaves, each containing words that may or may not describe God, face down on a table. Students take turns choosing a leaf and reading the word. If the word describes God, they are asked to provide an example of how it represents God. For example, if the word is "caring", the children should share an example of how God cares for us. If the word does not describe God, the student is instructed to feed the leaf to the puppet. They can then open the puppet's mouth, place the leaf inside, and create eating sounds. The game continues until all the leaves are gone.
