Everyone loves and uses emojis :) Even kids ๐ง! Even my head pastor! Even older adults! ๐ด;) Everyone can relate, which makes these games fun ๐ ๐ I created the first one of these games to use online during the pandemic over zoom (on powerpoint) ๐ท But now that many of us are back in person they can also be used by projecting them in person, or you can print out the powerpoint presentation cards and hand them out. Lots of ways you could play! So far, I've made 4 versions - if you have any other ideas for Emoji Bible ๐ games, let me know! They're fun to make :)
1. Regular Bible Emoji Game: $3 (etsy store link) This one costs the most as it has 20 common and well-known Bible stories (the others have 10). To make them all a learning experience, I've included a summary of the story and Scripture where you can find the story. You could have them give you the summary to see if they remember the story before you advance the slide, or you could read the summary together. This is a great review of popular Bible stories that you could use all year round!
The 20 stories included are The Lost Sheep, Baby Moses, Queen Esther, birth of Baby Jesus, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego; Jesus Feeds the 5000, David and Goliath, Jesus Heals the Man on the Roof, the Resurrection, John the Baptist, Jesus Calms the Storm, Joseph Coat of Many Colors, the Last Supper, Zacchaeus, the Good Samaritan, Creation story, Daniel and the Lions, Jonah, Adam and Eve, Paul and Silas, Jesus Walking on Water.
This is the story of Feeding the 5000 :) |
This is the description/summary of the Last Supper slide. |
