Bible Times Sunday School Room
This room came about when we were doing a VBS a few years back. The program had scenery you could project onto the wall of a room to make it look like the inside of a Bible time’s home. I thought we had some rolls of white paper we had made look like stone, and so I planned on doing the whole room instead of just one wall.
Two things changed that.

Candy Land Style Easter Egg Hunt with a Twist
A few years ago we did an Easter Egg hunt as part of our
Sunday School Easter Breakfast. We have at least 1,000 plastic eggs, so in

this, I made up a color coded card for each child. I did the colors much like
the cards you pick up when you play Candy Land. So each child would pick up 14 eggs

The Empty Tomb - An Interactive Easter Lesson
Last Easter I wanted to make an empty tomb for the children
to enter for our Easter lesson. I had already covered our puppet stage with stone paper for
Daniel and the Lions’ Den. I simply converted it into the tomb.
How to make the cave:
- First, I cut an opening in the front for the tomb entrance. I saved the paper I cut to cover the stone I made in step 2.
- I found a large piece of flat cardboard and covered it with the paper from the opening. I needed to add some extra paper to complete the job. This was the stone that was rolled away.
- Finally, I covered the rest of the puppet theater with black tablecloths to make the cave effect. You could use plastic ones from the dollar store, black sheets, or even black bulletin board paper if you have it.

Golden goblets:
- I bought dollar store plastic wine glasses. I also found these gold star plates there.
