10 Commandments Activities for Kids: 10 Ideas to Try
Games
Begin a lesson by playing active games. That helps children engage and burn off some energy. Meanwhile, playing games at the end of a lesson, when time allows, reinforces what students learned.
1. Cup Knock Down
First, the teacher calls out commandments one at a time. Then players take turns trying to knock down a cup that represents each law.
2. Tablet Water Painting
Tactile learners will love this activity. And teachers will love how mess-free it is. Simply have young kids “paint” flat rocks with water. They can either free-paint or trace words of Scripture. Just write a commandment (or a few words from it) on the rock ahead of time, in white crayon.
3. 10 Commandments for Kids Bingo
After a lesson about the Ten Commandments, use these free printable bingo cards to play a fun wrap-up game.
