The last few years, we have used a purchased plan for our Fall Festival. It was a lot of fun and having a Bible Theme was just what we wanted. We were able to share the gospel with alot of children that maybe haven’t heard it before. These Fall Festival packages included simple trading cards that gave a picture of the Bible Hero and had the Bible Lesson on the back.
This year, we did the Trunk or Treat. What fun it was! Everyone enjoyed this and it was actually much easier on me. We wanted a way to get the gospel out to the children though. We remembered the trading cards and that the children seemed to like the idea of collecting them. So, I went looking for trading cards. What I found was beautiful, sturdy cards from Bible Quest. These cards, which have 33 different cards per set are wonderful just to have on their own. The cards have the Bible lesson on the back; however, there is a wonderful interactive website that goes along with the cards.
Children sign in and can register all the cards they have. On each card is a key icon. If you acquire three cards with the same key, you will have the passwords to open new areas on the web game. The web game gives you more information on the people, but also archeological information as well.
We gave these out to the children at Fall Festival and I am now giving them out when they attend Sunday School and Bible Study. I also, decided that this was a good prize for scripture memory rather than ribbons that clutter their rooms.
At present, there are 3 different sets of 33 cards. Cards can be purchased at Christian book store in packets of three at 99 cents. Or you can buy a set for about $10; however, I have been fortunate to find them online on sale for $5.
The Interactive game site is www.biblequest.com
They also offer other items that go along with the themes. Board games and even action figures of Biblical characters.
