June 13-17, 2011
At PandaMania Vacation Bible School, kids rotate through seven stations each day with their Crews, small groups of 5 elementary-age children with an adult or teenage Crew Leader. The daily Bible Point is reinforced in creative ways at each station throughout PandaMania VBS.
1. Party Time Sing & Play
Everyone opens their time together, as they sing a fun mix of classic favorite worship songs and brand-new praise songs, arranged to appeal to both older kids and younger kids. At least one song each day specifically ties to that day’s Bible Point.
2. Wild Bible Adventures
Kids experience the daily Bible story in a hands-on way and then have small-group discussion with their Crew Leaders, where they connect their unforgettable Bible experiences to real life.
3. Bamboo Blast Games
Kids play games that connect with the daily Bible Point or Bible story.
4. Chadder’s Movie Mania
In each day’s exciting cliffhanger video segment, Chadder Chipmunk explains the daily Bible Point. Then kids do exciting, memorable activities to help them apply what they’ve learned to their daily lives.
5. Crazy Crafts & Missions
Kids make Bible Point crafts that remind them of the day’s Bible story and Point. Plus, through an Operation Kid-to-Kid™ mission project, kids experience what it means to share God’s love.
6. Treetop Treats
All the Crews come together at Treetop Treats to eat fun snacks that tie in with the Bible story. Each day at PandaMania VBS, one group of Crews skips the games time to make the snacks for everyone at VBS. Snack preparation provides kids with a unique opportunity to show Jesus’ love by serving others. During snack time, Crew Leaders guide their Crews in doing one of the iOpener activities.
7. Rowdy Wrap-Up
Drama experiences, singing the Party Time Sing & Play songs, and watching the Spotlight VBS™ slide presentation help kids remember and apply the daily Bible Point and Bible story they have learned throughout the day.
