Snacks and Decorating Ideas

Calvin Baptist Church -- VBS 2013

SnacksI love these! They are cute and so simple.

They’d be perfect for Day 3: “Dare to Believe” about Paul and Silas in Jail.

Acts 16:22-34

I found this on the Church House Collection Blog website. http://churchhousecollection.blogs

pot.com/2012/01/paul-and-silas-snacks-for-kids.html

I have a feeling these are delicious.

Check out the Domestic Rebel website for the recipe.

You’ll find it if you scroll down past the odd story she tells.

Snacks are Good

Pink popcorn….It’s very much like cotton candy popcorn.

And I love cotton candy.

This recipe is on the website Cravings of a Lunatic.

Love the name. I do. http://www.cravingsofalunatic.com/2012/02/old-fashioned-pink-popcorn.html

Keep on Snacking

How cute and simple is this?

I bet it takes like 1.2 seconds to make.

Head on over to the website Rose Bakes for the recipe.

Snackalicious I like this because it’s unique and relatively simple and, well, healthier than many of the snacks we’re going to provide at bible school.

Go to the kidactivity.net website and scroll maybe ¾ of the way down the page for the recipe.

DecorationsWhiffle Ball “Candy” Lights

Oh my goodness, I love this!! And it seems pretty simple.

I really hope someone will give this a try.

I found it on another website whose name I really like – Ignoring Chores.

More Decorations

I love easy ideas, and this falls into that category.

You can link to it from the Pinterest website.

The description from the one who posted this says:

“Wrapped bouncy balls in cellophane to look like pieces of candy…”

Looking for easy? How about simply putting tape down on the floor?

If you go to the website on Pinterest, don’t bother clicking on the picture as the link is bad.

But, I think the picture alone can suffice.

Hooray for Decorations!

Decorations Make the World Go RoundLove the balloons, but this is primarily about the noodle things being used as a roller coaster.

Please, someone, do this. It looks kinda sorta simple, huh?

This is another Pinterest link where clicking on the picture does you no good.

But, like the previous slide, the picture will likely be all you need.

Keep on Decorating

Ok, I’ve done “simple” for this entire presentation, but I’m going to conclude on a more elaborate note.

I just have to believe that there are enough talented people in our church (and any other churches who may view this) that this can be done.

The idea comes from Mr. Mark’s Classroom. There are some cool things on that site.

I hope everyone in the whole wide world finds these ideas helpful. I do, after all, put together really awesome stuff.

While I didn’t create any of the decorating/snacks ideas here, I am happy to answer questions if you have any.

My responses might very well be some form of, “How should I know?”, but ask anyway and let’s see where this goes.
