Ping Pong Tower
WHAT YOU NEED: Plastic Cups, Ping pong ball
WHAT YOU DO: Give the kids a stack of plastic cups and challenge them to build a tower or castle. Once their tower is built, give them a ping-pong ball. Their challenge is to balance the ping-pong ball on the very top cup of your tower. Then, carefully move the cup with the ping-pong ball down to collect all the cups without the cups falling or the ping-pong ball falling off. This will take steady hands and patience. IF the ping-pong ball or cups fall, encourage them to restack the cups and try again. Say: “Don’t give up!”
WHAT YOU SAY: “You did it! It wasn’t easy, but you didn’t give up. It’s like that when we pray. Sometimes we have to keep asking and keep trusting God. When we do, God gives us peace and joy. God’s kingdom grows when you pray and don’t give up.”
