This is another craft idea taken from a Gospel Light resource book. We used this idea for a SS project, and pasted a memory verse at the bottom. If I can't think of another SS activity, we usually make a decorative item that can carry a memory verse, so the kids have incentive to look at/practice the verses that week.
Supplies needed:
-2 paper plates per child
-pre-cut shapes from colored paper
-glue
-yarn (cut three equal lengths for each child)
-hole puncher
-stapler and staples
-brown paper or cardboard, pre-cut to be your "balloon basket" in proportion to your paper plates
-memory verses, cut out and ready to glue onto the balloon basket
First, allow your kids to choose the colored shapes they like and glue them to the bottom side of the paper plates. Next, staple the paper plates together to make your balloon. Then, punch three holes around the edge of the plate...one hole at the top for a hanger, and two holes at the bottom for attaching your "basket." The, punch two holes into the top of your "basket." Tie the basket to the balloon with two pieces of yarn. Use the third piece of yarn to tie a loop onto the top of the balloon for a hanger. Allow the kids to glue the memory verse to the balloon basket.
