Preschool Ministry Idea: Throw a Birthday Party for Jesus!
Follow these simple steps and throw a birthday party for Jesus this Christmas—one where your church’s preschoolers can join in with the fun!
Step One: Decorate
Decorate the room and hallway with streamers, Mylar balloons, and “Happy Birthday, Jesus” signs. Show kids today is a special day.
Step Two: Sing Praises
As children enter, play kids’ praise music to welcome them. Preschoolers understand a birthday, and they’ll be excited to take part.
Step Three: Party Games
Play a few simple party games like Pass the Baby. Have children hug a baby doll and then pass it on.
Step Four: Eat Cake
Gather kids around your snack table and turn off the lights. Sing “Happy Birthday” while you enter with a small cake.
Allergy Alert: Consider any food allergies.
Step Five: Party Favor
If funds allow, send each child home with a party favor. Tell children Jesus is so happy they attended his birthday bash.
