FORTY CHILDREN’S TALKS Over the years I have given many children’s talks in Church. Some of the favourites have involved the use of toys. Young children love a simple story, and they also enjoy having something to watch as well. Using toys and a lot of make-believe is a technique they easily identify with. I always take a bag up front with me, hiding some surprise! |
