  • On separate clothespins print each word of the Bible verse selected.game3

 

  • Create a second set using a different colored permanent marker.

PLAY:

  • Separate and place two sets of the Bible verse on opposite sides of the table.
  • On “go” players will race to see who can clip the Bible verse words in correct order around the prepared pie pan.
  • For added excitement, include an old-fashioned bike horn. The player who completes the verse first will grab and blow the horn.
  • Continue playing allowing the winner of each round to be challenged by a new player.
  • OPTION: Make the game into a relay race by placing the prepared clothespins in a container on one end of the room and the pie pan on the other.
