Spoon Catapults

FAMILY ACTION PACK
Spoon Catapults
You will need
A spoon
A small food item
Two small bowls
A Bible marked at Romans 3:23
STEP 1
Put a spoon in a small bowl so that the handle sticks out. This
naturally creates a catapult.
STEP 2
Take a small food item like a marshmallow or a piece of cereal
and put it inside the spoon.
STEP 3
A few feet away from your spoon-catapult, set a second bowl
to be your target.
STEP 4
By flipping the tip of the spoon, try to shoot the food from one
bowl to the other.
ASK—How did you do? Did you hit or miss your target?
In life we have a target too—to be perfect, just like Jesus, and
all of us have fallen short.
READ: Romans 3:23
SAY—We’ve all done wrong things and we’ve all fallen short
of God’s perfection. That’s why we need a Savior. That’s the
reason Jesus died and rose again—to make a way to take our
sins away. And the best decision anyone can ever make is to
give their life to Him.
ASK—How do you think a person gives their life to Jesus?
SAY—This is how the Bible says that a person can give their
life to Christ:
SAY—“A” (Ask your child to say “A” real loud.)
Admit that we have done wrong things and be willing
to stop doing those wrong things.
SAY—“B” (Ask your child to say “B” real loud.)
Believe that Jesus is God’s Son who died
and was raised from the dead.
SAY—“C” (Ask your child to say “C” real loud.)
Call on the Lord, confess our
sins, and commit our life to Him.
PRAY— List prayer requests below and thank God that He
can forgive our sins.
