OVERVIEW: This Bible hunt was designed to be used with Sunday School Classes or youth groups in grades 6th - 8th, ages 11 – 14 (although with an adult helper on their team, 5th graders could handle this hunt).
There are two versions of this bible study scavenger hunt for you to choose from that use the same set of clues and format.
- Version 1: Operation Two by Two (The Story of Noah’s ark)
- Version 2 for the Christmas season: Operation Away in a Manger (The Story of Baby Jesus’ Birth)
The general idea in both hunts is for the group to be divided into teams. Each team is given a bag of instructions, a team booklet, a King James version of the Holy Bible (although you can use another version if you so choose), and pencils. The teams will follow clues that lead them to various locations around your church grounds. At each location they will find an envelope with instructions on how to complete a certain page in their team booklet, a small piece of paper with a letter of the alphabet written on it, and a figure that will be used to complete a nativity scene or ark scene (according to which version you choose to do). The hunt works best if you can enlist various church members to assist you, including your pastor, the choir master, etc.
If your time frame is more than an hour, you may decide to add team projects for your youth to complete for additional points. There are 3 suggested project ideas for you to choose from based on your time frame and budget. A word search is provided to occupy the team that finishes early. The teams are given points for the pages that are completed in the team book and for the projects they completed. At the end of the game, the points are tallied up, and the team with the most points wins. That being said there should be no “losers”. All teams should get some sort of award (scout your local discount department store or toy store for inexpensive prizes). This hunt includes editable Award Certificates.
CHALLENGE EXAMPLES:
Location clue examples:
1. Thirsty?
Organizer, you'll tape the clue to the side of the water
fountain or drink machine.
2. Look in our classroom.
Organizer, you'll
place the clue somewhere in the youth classroom
or youth lounge.
- More locations clues are included in the full hunt and we also provide an alternate location list for you. There are 8 locations to find for the Noah's Ark hunt and 9 to find for the Christmas hunt.
2 EXAMPLES OF ANSWERS THEY'LL NEED TO FIND, ONE FROM EACH HUNT:
Noah's Ark Envelope with Clue #1:
In the Letter to Hebrews the Hebrew people are reminded of Noah’s
righteousness. Using the King James version of the Holy Bible, look up
and have a team member read aloud Hebrews 11:7. Fill in the blanks on
Page 1 of your Team Booklet.
ENVELOPE #1 ANSWER SHEET THE KIDS NEED TO FILL IN:
By faith Noah, being warned of God of ______ _____________, moved with
____, prepared an ___ to the saving of his house; by the which he _________
the _____, and became heir of the _____________ which is by faith.
The Christmas Story Envelope with Clue #1:
Using the King James Version of the Holy Bible, look up Matthew 1:21
and fill in the blanks on page 2 of your team booklet.
ENVELOPE #1 ANSWER SHEET:
What was the angel’s name?
Why did Zacharias doubt the angel?
What happened to Zacharias as a result?
Project example (there are 3 to choose from; you can choose one or more
according to how much time you have):
1. Create a rap, a poem or a song about the story of Noah’s Ark/birth
of Jesus. Teams will perform at the end of the session and points will
be given according to creativity. (This is worth up to 1000 points---depending
on your effort!) Facilitator, provide paper and pencils for the teams
I love the games! We are using them for our Christian Camp. Our theme this year is "CSI - Christ Story Investigation". Your games are perfect! We are using the "Operation Away in a Manger" and "Operation Two by Two" then we will have a special day for Lab/Murder Scene Investigation - using your "Operation Crime Scene Investigation" game we are adapting it to fit an investigation of how Jesus died and what happened to His body. (For example, the murder weapon will be large nails, etc.) We had a training session for the counselors and had them pretend to be the kids and play "Operation Away in a Manger". The counselors loved the game and probably had more fun than the kids will! LOL... I just wanted you to know how we are using your games and how helpful they are for our camp theme this year. Thank you and God Bless, Vicki Milford, Talladega AL
