When planning events, it’s easy to focus on what sounds the most unique or creative—but not every event should be trying to accomplish the same goal. In this episode of Kids Ministry Answers, someone from our Facebook Group asked a question about favorite kids ministry event ideas. So Linda and Jason break down different types of events and share practical ideas to help you choose and plan events that build relationships, welcome families, and create meaningful ministry moments.

QUESTION:
What are your favorite event ideas?

ANSWER:
In this episode, we’ll talk about how to...

• Plan just-for-fun events that help kids build friendships and positive associations with church
• Leverage holiday events like Christmas and Easter to connect with families and share the story of Jesus
• Create outreach and family events that make it easy for new families to engage and feel welcomed
• Maximize big opportunities like VBS to combine fun, discipleship, and outreach into one powerful experience
