Activity
Scatter about the room objects that represent various countries and geographic localities. Have youth try to find as many of the objects as possible and identify the countries they might represent.
Some possibilities are:
ice-iceland, pyramid – Egypt, pizza – Italy, hammer – russia, flags from various countries, tulip – Holand, Elephant – India, Bhudda – China/ Asia, french baguette – France (French fries weren’t invented in france but instead in the USA), hats or clothing from various contries, maple leaf- Canada, photos from various places, sarong – Malaysia, etc.
Use your imagination and take a look about your house. Reward students who match the hidden items with the correct countries. The more items, the better.
Debrief
All the places represented have one thing in common – they all need to know Jesus.
