Why choose Whirl Classroom?
-
Characters kids can relate to
Animated characters model what it’s like for kids to go through the questions and challenges of living out their faith.
-
Bible-centered approach
Kids dive into the Bible in every lesson.
-
Age-appropriate resources
Lesson materials and videos engage younger and older kids.
-
Faith in action
Learner leaflets include many ways families can put their faith into action throughout the week.
How it works
Lessons follow a four-part sequence: Welcome, Hear, Respond, and Launch. Each week, kids and leaders start their time together by identifying where they are in the church year and watching an animated video. Next they dive into Whirl Story Bible or Whirl NRSV Bible, responding to the scripture lesson with creative leaflet activities, circling up to review the lesson, and praying before being sent out.
Printed lesson materials are sold quarterly, and you can access all leader content with a Sparkhouse Digital subscription.
