If you want some crazy fun, mix a bunch of Missionary Kids with Bible lessons, singing, swimming, crafts…and JOKING CHINS!
Three kids lay on their backs, their heads hanging over the edge of a table, chins pointing up toward the ceiling. Put a pillow under the neck so it is more comfortable. Then, using white sheets and clothespins, make it so only the mouth and chin sticks out.
Then comes the fun part - using black craft paint, put a couple dots for eyes and smaller dots for the nose. I like to add hair or a moustache on a couple for variety.
Have the “chins” open their mouths really wide! Then have them do funny things with their chin, like stiffen it, or pucker it. Today, we had them tell jokes and sing happy birthday! The best joke was voted on by the class. Hilarious!
This year we tried a couple of new ideas, like adding marbles and coins inside our rubber bands.
These are always a huge success! I’m guessing the ants think so too, since not only do the kids make these shooters, but they have a “fight” with them in my yard.
