When all of the children have filled their balloons, the teacher will give a signal and ALL balloons can be let go to FLY all around the room. Explain to the children that on Pentecost, the followers of Jesus heard the sound of a mighty rushing wind. HOLY SPIRIT SHAKER: Give each child can be given a small plastic water bottle to be filled with popcorn kernels, rice, or dried beans. Use markers to decorate the bottle with words from today's lesson. Orange and red strips of tissue paper may be glued or taped to the bottom of the bottle to represent flames. The children can shake their bottles as they run a race together. HOLY SPIRIT PINWHEEL: Let the children make a simple pinwheel using the template provided. After the pinwheel is completed, let children run and watch their pinwheel move with the wind - or place them in front of a fan. Discuss the fact that even though they can't SEE the wind, they know it is there because they see the pinwheel moving. Compare that to the Holy Spirit moving in our life. (Simple Pinwheel Template) FLAME KITE: Provide the children with orange and red construction paper on which they may draw or trace and cut out flames to place on kite shaped cut out made of poster board.
