A healthy snack for teaching children about Joseph's coat of many colors! A perfect activity for a kids Bible lesson!

Gather pretzel sticks, icing, Sour Patch Kids, Graham crackers, a plate, and a spoon. Place a one half of a Graham cracker on the plate and top with icing. Place two Sour Patch Kids on the icing to be Paul and Silas. Place pretzel sticks around Paul and Silas to be jail bars. (Optional) Top with the other half of the Graham cracker. Paul and Silas had joy even when they were in jail. We can have joy too when Jesus is our friend!

To make: Buy brown lunch sacks...one per student. Fill with popped popcorn. Before class, spray paint cups silver.

Then they can search through the bag for the silver cup. The black thing on the bag is a die-cut of a wheat stalk that was die-cut on adhesive-backed felt. Money is from party store.

My friend Sara Virdell had the brilliant idea to use rice crispies instead so there would be no choking or nose hazards. So…
