Faith Folders
Get plain, two-pocket folders and decorating items such as stickers, markers, photos, or glitter glue.
Let kids share their faith at school by creating folders with a message. Have kids decorate folders with faith messages such as “God rocks!” or “Jesus is my hero.” Photos from summer programs and events add a unique touch.
Backpack Tags
Get cookie cutters, pencils, craft foam, scissors, markers, a hole punch, and colored cable ties (available at hardware stores).
Kids can easily identify their backpacks with these colorful, customized tags. Let kids trace and cut out a foam shape. Kids can print their information such as name, school, or class on one side. On the other side, let kids write a favorite Bible verse or Christian phrase to share their love for Jesus. Punch a hole at the top of the shape and use a colored cable tie to attach it to the child’s backpack.
Secret Zipper Pulls
Get beading cord, lanyard hooks (available at craft stores), pony beads, and copies of the secret code key.
Kids can protect sensitive numbers such as locker combinations or emergency phone numbers.
Kids can tie a secure knot at one end of the beading cord, and then string beads using the secret code key. String beads that match the numbers in a phone number or locker code according to the secret code key. Continue the pattern until the phone number or locker code is complete. Tie the end of the cord and attach a lanyard hook. Kids can attach their secret codes to their backpacks or jackets as they head to school for the year.
