Raining again this Sunday. Kids trapped inside bouncing off the walls like caffeinated pinballs while I stare at my ruined nature walk plans.

Had this whole outdoor thing planned - collecting leaves, talking about God's creation, fresh air fixing everyone's attitudes. Now I'm stuck in the fellowship hall with twenty-three kids going absolutely stir crazy.

Today we're talking about indoor games that actually work when kids are already wound up from being cooped up - from human knots that take forever to Bible charades that let shy kids shine. Plus why simple beats elaborate when everyone's already losing their minds.

If you're staring at rainy day chaos and wondering how to survive until pickup time, this one's for you. Fair warning: things will get loud and that's perfectly fine.

For Sunday school teachers, children's ministry leaders, and anyone who's discovered that weather doesn't care about your perfectly planned outdoor activities.
