Game of the Week: Testament Wheels

December 4, 2014 | Kids Ministry

emeott-150x150I remember playing this Bible skills game as a child and I’ve been amazed at how the kids in my class have loved playing this, too!

1

  • 2 Round Aluminum Pizza Pans
  • 66 Clothes Pins
  • A Fine Point Permanent Marker

 

2

  • On the “back side” of one of the pizza pans print OLD TESTAMENT.  On the other pan, print NEW TESTAMENT.
  • On the front side of each pan divide the pan into five equal parts.
  • Print a division of each testament in one of the divided wedges. Old Testament = LAW; HISTORY; POETRY AND WISDOM; MAJOR PROPHETS; MINOR PROPHETS. New Testament = GOSPELS; HISTORY; PAUL’S LETTERS; GENERAL LETTERS; PROPHECY
  • On individual clothespins, print (on both sides) each book of the Bible
  • Place prepared clothespins in a container.

  • Spill the prepared clothespins from their container.
  • With the pizza pans turned to the “testament” sides quickly attach Old Testament books to the Old Testament pan and New Testament pins to the New Testament pan.
  • Turn the pans over.
  • Now quickly move pins to the correct “division wedge.”
  • Finally, arrange the pins in Bible book order.

FOR ADDITIONAL CHALLENGE:

  • With older kids, use a timer to keep up with individual’s (or team’s) time. Challenge kids to “decrease” their time or to “increase” their ranking on the chart.
