 Easy to explain and execute

 Minimal materials

 Age-appropriate for ages 5 to 85

 Adaptable for different locations

BOLT is jam packed with fun crafts

In addition to games, each video also illustrates how to do an origami craft. There’s a comic sports-casting duo who provides humorous play-by-play as the kids make the origami craft along with origami super-star, “Hans Handerson.”

What age range is BOLT VBS designed for?
BOLT is designed for kids ages 5 through 85. It’s something fun for everyone! 

Can BOLT be adapted for use as a live “virtual VBS” online experience?
Absolutely. With the purchase of a church license, we provide all of the videos and materials as well as the permission you’ll need to create a live online experience. If you want each video broken into their individual segments, we provide that too. We even give you the video scripts in case you want to reproduce some of the video segments with your own teachers. 

How do you recommend using BOLT VBS?
For churches looking to use BOLT with their families, you can use it any way you imagine, but we suggest that you schedule the VBS just like you normally would. With our curriculum, every home can be a virtual VBS. Encourage all of your families to experience BOLT on the same 3 day schedule. You could even do a Zoom party at the end of each day so that everyone can share their experiences together as a church.

How many people do you need for BOLT VBS to work?
BOLT works whether you have 2 people or 2,000. If your area is still under quarantine, a single family can perform BOLT by themselves with as few as one parent and one child. If parents feel comfortable gathering with more people, they can invite as many neighbors, friends, and family as they would like.

Because of this, BOLT is the perfect outreach event! You can even encourage leaders who do not have children of their own to host BOLT virtual VBS in their own neighborhood. Think of it as the ultimate backyard VBS event to help Christian families share the Gospel in a fun way at home.
