Pentecost Mix: A Snack Activity for Early Elementary Grades

Pentecost (Ho-keh-ka-loust) is May 27th this year which falls in the middle of the Memorial Day weekend. Many Sunday Schools are closed for this weekend, but the following is a fun (and tasty!) activity for little ones which can be used on the Sunday before or after.

First, teach the kids how the Holy Spirit came upon the believers in an event that has come to be known as “the birthday of the church” by reading aloud Acts 2:1-12.

Then have kids make this tasty snack as a reminder of Pentecost. Place the following ingredients into a resealable plastic bag. You can assemble the snack bags together (with help for the littlest). Some ideas below, although you may come up with your own. Of course, clear all food allergies with parents (which should be routinely done, anyway, at registration time) and prepare accordingly.
