Faith Formation
God Calls Us to Community
Baobab Blast is a surprising adventure where kids explore the wonder, friendships, and joy of building God’s community. Baobab Blast teaches kids to understand and develop relationships with God, family, friends, and others. God’s Great Get-Together is a nurturing environment that is inclusive of all participants, where meaningful friendships happen and memories last.
Activities and Lessons Are Age-Appropriate
Because Baobab Blast is written by people with extensive practical experience and education in the field of children’s education and experience in leading VBS, the faith formative activities are effective in reaching your entire community of kids. The theory of multiple intelligences is applied to the lessons and activities so that there are options that meet the needs of kids who learn differently.
Bible Books Are Interactive Faith Formation Tools
The Baobab Blast Bible Books for each grade-level bring the Bible stories to life in a visual way and help put “Faith in Action.” The Preschool Bible Story Foldout includes a colorful image of the day’s Bible story and fun activities to do both at VBS and at home. The Bible Books for older age levels include colorful images as well as activities and text that correlate with the day’s Bible Story. These great books encourage kids to interact with messages from the scriptures both during Small Group Activity time and at home.
