So, in our house we have bible study every Monday and Thursday nights. For a while we were doing these worksheets and all. That was good but I could tell the kids were getting rather bored with it and starting to loose interest in the whole thing. So this week, I made up bible study bingo from information from the lessons we have had in the past. I made little sheets with a 5x5 grid (about 1 inch for each square). In the middle of the grid, I did the traditional “free” space. All the others I filled in the answers to the questions I was going to ask (I wrote the questions on a separate piece of paper first, and highlighted the answers so I would not read the answer by accident). There were 24 spaces and 24 questions. Then I cut the questions up and shook them in a jar, as I pulled out the paper and read the question the kids would find the answer and put a “chip” on the space. In order to make sure they had a bingo I would have them read the answer and then tell me the question it went with. When they got a bingo, they got to pick a piece of candy from the candy jar.
We used memory verses, books of the bible and questions from past lessons. For example; one question was “what book comes after numbers?” then they would find Deuteronomy. Another one was “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” then they would have to find Romans 3:23
The kids not only had fun but it was a great refresher in all the things we had been working on.
