Telephone (page 122)- Have the children sit in a circle. Tell them they are going to play a game about spreading news. Whisper a phrase such as “Jesus is born” or “The Messiah is here” into the first person’s ear. They have to whisper your phrase to the next person sitting beside them. Repeat until the phrase gets all around the circle. The last person will say the phrase out loud. The phrase will usually be mixed up and wrong by the time it gets to the end. Repeat several times.

Debriefing (page 123)- Allow response time as you ask: Did our phrase ever come out right? Why did it get mixed up? (Because we whispered; we spoke quietly; we tried to keep others from hearing; etc.) How does God want us to speak when we tell others about Jesus? (boldly and clearly) How softly do you think the shepherds spoke when they talked about Jesus?



Introduce game: What does a shepherd do? What happens if one lamb is missing?
