Puppet ministry has huge potential in Sunday school and children’s church. Learn tips for reaching young learners with this exciting kidmin approach.
Most kids think they don’t enjoy learning. They often don’t want to attend school, much less Bible class. Like most of us, though, they love learning when they love how they are learning.
Children learn best when they’re having so much fun they don’t realize they’re learning! As teachers of God’s word, we have our work cut out for us. So we must get creative in our teaching.
Why Puppet Ministry Is So Effective
Reach all three major learning styles with one simple activity—a Bible puppet theater. First, you share the lesson using your finger puppets to tell the story. Your finger puppet may be the student, and you, the teacher, talk to the puppet.
You tell the puppet the Bible story while asking questions all along the way. Your finger puppet answers with amazement. And when the puppet does not know the answer, it simply asks the class!
Puppet ministry gets children involved. You reach visual learners as they watch the puppets in action. Auditory learners hear the story and get to answer some questions along the way. Kinesthetic learners thrive as well.
