10 Commandments for Kids: 10 Ideas to Try

Games

Playing active games at the beginning of a lesson helps children engage (and burn off some energy). Meanwhile, playing games at the end of a lesson, when time allows, reinforces what students learned.

1. Cup Knock Down

First, the teacher calls out commandments one at a time in this active kidmin game. Players then take turns trying to knock down a cup that represents each law.

2. Tablet Water Painting

Tactile learners will love this activity. And teachers will love how mess-free it is. Simply have young kids “paint” flat rocks with water. They can either free-paint or trace words of Scripture. Just write a commandment (or a few words from it) on the rock ahead of time, in white crayon.

3. 10 Commandments for Kids Bingo

After a lesson about the Ten Commandments, use these free printable bingo cards to play a fun wrap-up game.

Crafts
