CLICK HERE FOR THE DEDICATED SIGNS PINTEREST BOARD
AIM: The aim of the ‘Signs’ teaching series is to help children understand and explore the 7 Signs found in John’s Gospel. This teaching series uses a fun series of road signs to help the children access the series easily.
DECORATION IDEAS:
- Large road signs all around the room
- Traffic lights such as these fun ones for the floor for kids
- Road created on the floor using this runner would stand out in your room.
- Use toy sets around the room that include road signs such as these or this one.
- Using road tape for craft or for a fun car toy area could also be fun!
- Road table covers will help to bring the theme all together.
- Lights such as this novelty traffic light system would also look great.
- To get super creative use a road backdrop for fun pictures to help create memories for the children. A photo using this backdrop could be something you then send home with the children at the end of the series.
We want to see your photos so don’t forget to tag us into any that you take using @ministryark.
