Description - Clap Your Hands, Stomp Your Feet: Make a Joyful Noise Vbs Curriculum by Jared Kennedy

Young children love to sing, clap, and dance. Each time we lead kids in worship, we instinctively call them to worship responsively: "Clap your hands! Sing out! Shout Hallelujah!" One of the dangers inherent in teaching kids to worship this way is that we sometimes call for responses without showing kids a clear picture of the Heavenly Father they are responding to. The Clap Your Hands Stomp Your Feet VBS Curriculum teaches children the "why" behind our worship and then leads them to respond to God's grace and goodness through fun, active praise. Each of the five days of assembly time, Bible study, crafts, and games work together to engage kids in lively, responsive praise rooted in the truths of the gospel. Appropriate for use with churched and unchurched children alike, Clap Your Hands Stomp Your Feet teaches that proactive praise is a lifelong response to the good news of Jesus. Each day connects the truths of the gospel to real-life scenarios through a study of the life of King David, and is written with a heart to call children to contagious, demonstrative praise.
