How to Make an Easy Bible Trivia Game for Kids

Bible trivia can form the core of an easy game for kids.

A bible trivia game could come in handy for a Sunday School or Christian bible study group for children. One easy game can be done with flash cards. The game should stick to the most famous stories from the bible or book titles if the children are 10 and under.

Things You'll Need

• Index cards
• Game pieces

Instructions

1. Go through the bible and create a list of questions and answers. Some possible examples could be "What was the name of Cain's brother?," "What did God give to Moses on Mt. Sinai?" or "What are the first four books of the new testament?"

2. Assign a value to each question. The easiest questions could be worth two points, while the toughest questions may be worth five. Write the value of the card's question on one side of the card.

3. Write a question, and the answer, on the other side of the index card. Write out about 50 cards. You may need more or fewer cards depending on the size of your play group.

4. Establish a time limit for the players to answer the questions. It should not be more than 30 seconds or you could have a really long game.

5. Create a game board where each player (or team) has a "road" to travel. Ask the players to pick a card based on the difficulty level, then read the question without showing the answer. Have the children raise their hands if they know the answer. For each correct answer, that player gets to move a game piece, which can be any small object, a few steps down the road. The steps can correspond to the value of the question. The first player to get a piece to the end of the road is the winner.
