START HERE: NextGen Activity Box

Welcome to the NextGen Activity Box! We hope that this in-home resource will help kids better connect with church and faith, especially during the global pandemic when nothing is normal and everything is different. Building faith is critical, especially for the Next Generation. NextGen Activity Boxes are a fun and interactive way to prioritize faith, even when you’re stuck at home!

The following video will unpack everything that comes in your NextGen Activity Box. It’s a short and informative video that will explain what’s in the box and how to use it. Below the video are the highlights.

WHAT’S IN THE BOX?

  • The challenge Card (one per child): The Challenge Card is how you track your progress through the month. It’s perfect for hanging on the refrigerator. Essentially, the challenge card visually represents the THREE things to be done each week and the THREE things to be done each month.
  • Lesson Pack (one per age group): If we were meeting in person, we would typically do 2-3 activities after large group. We’ve simply put those activities (one per week) in this pack. Just read the lesson activity and do what it says. Most supplies are included in the activity pack. Since these are just instructions, we’ve only included one per box (kids at the same age can share).
  • Activity Pack (one per child): Just about every lesson (from the lesson pack) requires supplies. Those supplies are included in the activity pack. Be careful though, we’ve included all the supplies for the month in this one pack, so only use what you need for the week you are on. This way you will have what you need in the coming weeks.
