Enjoy summer and discover more about God’s big story in this engaging holiday resource for children aged 5-11 and their families.
Across six sessions, we will be ticking off some essential summer ‘bucket list’ activities. Through ice breakers, fun activities and a chance to build up self-esteem, children are encouraged to make treasured memories while learning about God.
You can run the Big Summer Holiday Bucket List as a holiday club, during your usual Sunday slots, or as a seasonal community event. The six sessions can be tailored to your particular group and setting: each will take a minimum of an hour, but you can vary activity lengths, swap the order around and pick and choose the themes. Parents, carers and friends can get involved too. The main activity for each session is an invitation to others so everyone can connect and explore God’s big story together.
