What you need: nothingWhat you do: This game is played just like follow the leader. Have the childrenline up behind an adult leader. The leader will lead them around the classroom in a

variety of different movements (walking, skipping, jumping, etc). Choose a child to

be the new leader and continue playing.

What you say: Today in our story we learned about Gideon, the man God choseto lead the Israelites against the Midianite army. Gideon was afraid, but God helped

him be brave and the Israelites won the battle. Raise your hand if you had a chance

to be the leader in our game today. Gideon was a brave leader because God was

with him.

What you need: large playing areaWhat you do: This game is a backwards version of hide and seek. Help thechildren count slowly to twenty together with eyes closed while one child hides.Once they are finished counting, the children may begin to look. As each player

finds "It," they squeeze into the hiding place until the spot is crowded with children.

When the last person finds the hiding place, that child gets to start a new game by

hiding first.

What you say: Today in our story we learned about Gideon, the man God chose

to lead the Israelites against the Midianite army. Gideon was afraid and even hid

from the Midianites, just like we hid in our game. But with Gods help he was brave

and the Israelites won the battle. When can you be brave?

What you need: large blanket or sheetWhat you do:Lay a large blanket or sheet on the floor and have the children sitaround the outside edge of it. Choose one child to step away from the group and

hide his eyes. Quietly choose another child to hide under the blanket. The child that

was away from the group with his eyes closed comes back. The child has to guess

who is under the blanket by looking around to see who is missing. Give them three

chances to guess before revealing the hidden child. Continue playing until every-

one has a turn.

from the Midianites, just like we hid in our game. But with Gods help he was brave
