The Light at the End of the Shake

So, this is what we taught the kids this past Sunday in Waumba Land:

2. Light Freeze 

“Light Freeze” is an activity that uses large motor skills to introduce the concept of the Bible story, "Saul on the road to Damascus".

What You Need: A light that will turn on and off.

What You Do: Have the children spread out around the room. Turn the lights off. Tell the children to be silly and wiggle and dance while the lights are off. When you turn the light back on everyone should freeze. Repeat as many times as desired.

What You Say: “That was so much fun! You all did a great job! I loved how everyone froze when the light came on. Today in our Bible story we are going to hear about a man who saw a very bright light. I cannot wait to hear what he did when he saw it. Are you ready to hear our true story from the Bible?” 

This is what it looked like:
