Vacation Bible School

Little No Limit’s very own hand-drawn and painted T-shirt:

I went to vacation Bible school every year for I don’t even know how many years, and I remember two things: one, Elmer’s glue was involved; two, during music time, the woman who played the guitar used a penny for a pick.

Little No Limit’s vacation Bible school doesn’t seem to be too different. The same old handmade T-shirt, as well as these nifty other crafts: a raccoon paper bag puppet, a the Chinese-to-go-box-turned-camp-cabin-handmade-piggy-bank, a clay-and-bead molding of a cross, a woven paper craft, and foam sticker creations. Perhaps the only thing different between hers and mine is that at the end of her week of vacation Bible school, they had a big ‘ol water slide to cap off the week of, um, Biblical study.

  • when i run VBS i tell my staff that the most important thing is that the kids feel loved and safe… all that “biblical study” is secondary. Make church a fun place to come and they’ll learn more about Jesus than any bible study can teach them.

  • How fun! I love the t-shirt. There’s nothing better than getting to wear something you made. I remember doing a similar project when I worked at a summer camp years ago. Except that there were 18 3 and 4 year olds, the instructors hadn’t chosen washable finger paints, and I was the one assigned to wash hands. But, you know, fun in the end.

  • VBS! My kids love VBS. Of course, it’s held as soon as school is finished here - what the heck, VBS church? But they do a great job, and there are lots of terrifyingly energetic women getting the kids to make their t-shirts and make their crafts.

    Your munchkin is a cutie.
