At Kids Around the World, our commitment goes beyond building playgrounds.  We share God’s love with children so they can understand the joy that Jesus offers and the hope they have in Heaven.  We believe in the importance of introducing children to Christ at an early age.  To do this, we train and equip Sunday School teachers and local children’s workers, showing them how to effectively communicate God’s Word by equipping them with the tools they need so they can continue long after we have left.  We manufacture and provide flannelgraph – bright, colorful figures on durable fabric – that share the lessons of Jesus and the Bible.  Our puppet teams also train young people all over the world to share the Good News using puppets.  We have partnered with Christians in countries such as India, Ghana, Thailand, Cuba and Ecuador as well as International Mission Organizations such as Campus Crusade and Child Evangelism Fellowship.

We have developed two full days of training in two areas - Bible training and puppetry. We also produce colorful, durable flannelgraph (in partnership with the JESUS film project) which illustrates stories from the life of Jesus and the book of Genesis without the need for electricity or expensive equipment. At times, we have the opportunity to minister directly to children through KIDS Bible Clubs and puppetry.
