2 Timothy 3:16 Game Cube

One of the fun ways I've found to teach kids a Bible verse is to turn it into a game. You can use the cube shape, and break the verse into six equal parts. I typically use one side of the six for the Bible reference. Have the kids write the verse out onto each side of the cube. Tape or glue the cube together. Once you are finished building the cube you have the makings of a very simple game.

You can play the game alone, or you can play the game with a friend. Make sure the kids know how the verse is supposed to read from start to finish. 

Each player takes a turn rolling the cube. The goal of the game is to get each part of the verse, in the order it belongs, ending with the Bible reverence. 

Each person rolls the cube one time for their turn, then passes the cube to the next player. Each turn you get one chance to roll the part of the verse you are on.

For this Bible verse you would start by trying to roll the side that reads 

All Scripture is inspired by God.

Once you have rolled that, your next turn you will be trying to roll 

and is useful to teach us what is true

Then your next turn you will be trying for 

and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives.

And so forth...

You continue to play and roll until you have gone all the way through the verse, including the Bible reference. You will have to remember which part of the Bible verse you are trying to roll next. The first person who makes it through the entire verse is the winner.

You could use this style of game for any verse! The kids love it! If you only have a few minutes with the kids, make the cube ahead of time for quick play. 

Card stock works best for making the cube. But I've made them both ways with plain printer paper. Sometimes it's really hard for little fingers to glue the flaps of the cube together. I always offer some tape as well to assemble the cubes.

You cut on the thick black lines, you fold all of the dotted lines.

All scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.
