Nehemiah Memories

For our VBS lessons on Nehemiah, we came up with a memory for each lesson to help the children remember that lesson. We used these memories also as each child's attendance chart for VBS. We had small box for each child. Each night we would talk about the item we were placing in the box and, then, allowed each child to place their item in their box. These are the items we used as memories as well as attendance:


Lesson One: a small cup (you could use a communion cup)


Lesson Two: a sad face or praying hands


Lesson Three: tool fruit snacks from Oriental Trading


Lesson Four: a small scroll (use flat ended toothpicks with paper cut to fit rolled between the toothpicks)
