Welcoming and Entering, Session 4: Flexibility (Duct Tape)
In "Toolbox of Faith," a Tapestry of Faith program
Materials for Activity
- Rolls of duct tape
- A ruler, a pencil, and scissors (including left-handed scissors)
- Optional: Toolbox of Our Faith poster
Preparation for Activity
- From the materials you have gathered for Activity 3: Duct Tape Lunch Bags, set out rolls of duct tape on a worktable.
Description of Activity
This section is intended for the time before the beginning of a session when participants arrive individually over a period of time (that is, "straggle in").
Welcome participants. Invite them to start tearing or cutting strips of duct tape, twelve inches long, in preparation for making a duct tape lunch bag. A standard size paper lunch bag requires eleven strips of duct tape approximately twelve inches long to cover it. Tell the children to lightly adhere a corner of each strip to the edge of a table or a chair for use later.
Now or later in the session, add a frame of duct tape around the Tools of Our Faith poster to represent today's quality of faith: flexibility.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.
