Build-a-Palm Sundae is a hands-on, station-based experience that walks kids step-by-step through the Triumphal Entry (Matthew 21:1–11) as they build a layered “Palm Sundae” made out of cardstock.
At each station, children:
- Receive one themed sundae piece
- Hear the Scripture connection
- Write or draw what it represents
- Glue it to their base
Layer by layer, they build the story, ending with Jesus at the center. This isn’t just a craft; it’s a structured, meaningful Palm Sunday experience designed to help kids understand and celebrate Jesus as King!
And it’s flexible! You can use it as a family event, a large group lesson, a small group or Sunday School lesson, or as a family take-home kit. Instructions and flexible options are included in the resource to fit your ministry needs and context.
