Sports Craft Ideas for Kids: Game On VBS

VBS 2017 just kicked off around the country, and millions of children all over this nation are experiencing God the Creator through Galactic Starveyors – Lifeway’s 2017 VBS theme! (You may have a few of my Galactic Starveyors Posts floating around the web: Craft Ideas, Snack Ideas or Decor Ideas)

Earlier this evening, Lifeway announced in a live video broadcast on Facebook the BRAND NEW theme for Vacation Bible School 2018. Are you ready for it? Grab those foam fingers and megaphones, because you’re going to want to holler and cheer as kids will be gearing up for life’s big game in: Game On!

VBS has been a huge part of my life ever since I was a small child. I’ve always loved the song, dance, games, worship, and every other aspect of Vacation Bible School, but I’ve always particularly been fond of the crafts! To help you start brainstorming a few ideas for Game On! next year, here are a few fun and creative craft ideas that I think will go perfectly with the theme! They’re all put together by some pretty amazing and talented bloggers, so be sure to visit each one and drop a comment letting them know you’ll be using their craft idea to spread the Good News at VBS next year! 😉
