We've recently introduced the Bible memory program 'Impress Kids' into your Sunday morning kids' church program. These online games encourage kids to learn Bible verses to earn points. The verses are ones that we have chosen to correlate with our program lessons and materials.

Although the kids have their own login details to play at home, we have set up some computers at church with internet access so that kids can play these games together before and after church.
It's a great incentive for the kids to be involved and play the games, encouraging each other to earn extra points and helping if they forget the next word in the verse. It also occupies the kids in a meaningful way while their parents take some time to talk with others over a cup of coffee. We've even had some adults offer some additional computers to help out with this initiative.
This type of church family focus and involvement would not have happened, though, if we hadn't made the effort to inform the church family of this program.

We included an information slide with the weekly church announcements and printed up copies to slip into the church bulletin. We'd also taken some time to update the snr pastor about the program and receive his support, so he was able to mention the program to the whole church family and encourage them to pray for the kids both at home and during their regular Sunday morning programs.
Even those without children like to know what's happening in Children's Ministry. We had often had families turn up at church because a neighbour or friend told them about the activities of our children's ministry. Take the time to share the information and excitement of your programs with the whole church family.
