Children’s ministry like never before.
If you look at your children’s ministry through the eyes of a parent, you’ll see that the keys to success involve three main things: safety, learning, and fun. And what kid doesn’t love going to the cinema?
Set up your children’s areas to be safe and fun learning environments. Start by getting a system in place for security – from drop off to pick up. Make sure all the equipment, toys and supplies you use are safe. Read more to make your children's ministry secure.
Next, be sure to be prepared. Children thrive on structure, so that means you need to have everything ready in advance, including crafts, supplies, snacks, songs, lines, scripts, and any other materials you plan to use. Bring more activities than you plan to use, and be prepared for the unexpected. Going portable means getting practical. Don’t overdo it! The key is to avoid downtime by keeping kids engaged and occupied. Explore ideas for lessons and kid-friendly media. The cinema is perfect for engaging children with video curriculum!
It’s easy to get all the gear you need for a safe and fun environment. With the right signage and equipment, your cinema children’s ministry will be the best in town!
“The theatre works well because children love to go see movies. Coming on the weekend to a church service in the movie theatre is fun for them.”
