Getting Started...

There are a LOT of different parts to Wonder VBS that are entirely new to all of us.
ON THIS PAGE, you will find:
  • Storytelling videos... these are the videos you'll use at the beginning of each week to frame your learning and activities. I will essentially be leading the teaching - all you need to do is tune your kiddos into the video.
  • Worship videos... one of the things I'm going to miss the MOST about not being together in-person for VBS is singing with the kids. Michael and I have recorded some of their favorite VBS songs and you can create your own worship time by simply clicking on the videos.
  • Story and Stretch (yoga) videos... the past two years we've included a rotation called Story and Stretch during VBS. This is a time when, through yoga, we retell the story for the week with our bodies. So, grab your yoga mat and use the videos below!

IN YOUR WONDER BOX, you will find:
  • A Leader Guide, which is for you, the grown-ups, to help guide you in guiding the activities with your children. There are five possible activities each week: Story and Stretch, Art/Craft, Science, Reflection, and Games. YOU DO NOT need to do them all. Pick and choose what you can handle, and what your children are interested in and capable of doing. 
  • A WonderJournal for each child. These journals are referenced in your Leader Guide and are to help your child learn and wonder through the activities.
  • Materials for the activities. We cannot provide all the materials you will need, but we did aim to provide as much of the needed materials as possible. In your Leader Guide, the materials provided in your WonderBox will be in bold type face, and any materials you will need to provide from home are in regular type face.
