Watch this video to learn a simple game that will help kids review the books of the Bible. Specifically, this game will allow them to practice where books belong in the Bible. The setup is rather simple, all you need is sidewalk chalk and a place to play.

  • Draw two box shapes large enough for all the kids to stand within
  • Label one box “New Testament” and the other “Old Testament”
  • Explain to the kids they should stand in the area that matches the name of the Bible books you are about to say
  • For books not in the Bible they should stand outside both boxes
