Razzamatazz Robots Holiday Club!

John Hardwick

From The Church Times - June 2009

If your church has a committed and large team of children's workers, and your mind is turning to the summer holidays, Razzamatazz Robots Holiday CIub! is sure to raise a smile. The Watt family dramas illustrate the story of the creation and fall, Noah and redemption. Games, puppet sketches, quizzes, music, activities, and worksheets are provided. All you need to find are the people to make it happen.

Resources for five two-and-a-half-hour sessions are provided, plus additional material for another day or church service based on the Good Shepherd and the lost sheep. The programme is unapologetically evangelistic, and great fun. It would, with preparation and energy from a team of children's workers, be highly effective.

In my experience, summer holiday clubs inspire faith in large part because of the intensity of relationship that develops between leaders and children. Discipleship can be more difficult to inspire in regular children's groups if they are not encouraged by the church, and the leaders are not committed to running them regularly.
