In this exciting nighttime outdoor game, you'll have to be on high alert, because the enemy could be lurking anywhere. Don't get caught!
Perfect for the camp theme or the Nehemiah semester program.
Fancy a weekly game among the kids at camp?
Why is there suddenly a chair wrapped in toilet paper in the dining hall? Zorro and his sidekick have been up to their shenanigans all week without getting caught. Who saw him? Is there any suspicion?
The Zorro week game has already proven itself many times in our Jungschi and the kids are always very happy to participate. At the beginning of the camp, each child receives a lottery ticket. Among many citizens there is also a Zorro (in large groups possibly two Zorros). This one gets various tasks, which he has to do unnoticed with the help of his helper sometime during this camp week.
Citizens are naturally vigilant and can report their suspicions to the game master or to the suspicion list. However, to avoid simply guessing, the suspicion must be substantiated and a false suspicion may result in a small penalty.
Do the citizens manage to blow the whistle on Zorro and/or his sidekick, or does Zorro manage to perform all his duties unnoticed?
A little game on the story of Samson.
(Bible; Judges 13-16)
The principle is similar to the game Scissors, Rock, Paper.
From salt dough you can make great tablets of the law. First, they look very real and second, Moses can break them in his anger. (Unfortunately, ours were broken before a photo was taken...)
Later, Moses had to write down the laws himself. You might as well make some as vertüferli with the Jungschärlern.
As we are planning a trip to the local fire department with the Jungschar, I wanted to hold a devotion in the spirit of the unit program. But since I didn't find very much material for this, I worked something out myself. The goal was to form a tangible parallel between the world of experience of the fire department and the Gospel, but at the same time to be able to pass on a practical application for everyday life especially also for the many church children in our Jungschar.
Wax seals add a beautiful detail to boys' baptismal certificates, letters and scrolls that is sure to impress. The engraving can be related to the camp, semester or afternoon theme or can generally fit in with the Jungschar.
When the idea for a cross-country game is missing
... then why not try this one! It doesn't always have to be the spy game - right? Here the game is presented in the Fischer variant, but of course it can be adapted as you like.

A book summary of the book "The Smuggler of God" by Brother Andrew.
The whole text has been summarized and individual sections that are particularly important have been highlighted.
The basic aim of this post run is to tell the story in a way that is as accessible as possible to the children. Because this story (Exodus 12:34 to Exodus 14:4) is about the people of Israel being on the move, the group is also on the move during the program.
