Book Of Fidgets

Young people today are notorious for having short attention spans. And after spending 35 hours each week in school and several more studying and doing homework, they aren’t interested in coming to church and getting something that looks like a textbook or worksheet. Enter the Book of Fidgets, an interactive “doodle journal” that gives youth space to jot, sketch, scribble, and be creative. Instead of filling in blanks or completing crossword puzzles, youth will doodle. They will create. They will have the freedom to go wherever their brain–and, more importantly, the Spirit–leads them. Fidgets includes 52 weeks worth of youth group activities, along with a host of other doodling prompts for when youth are waiting for things to get started or when their hands need to be doing something so that their minds can focus. It offers doodle-centric sessions related to the seasons of the Christian calendar, cultural holidays (such as Valentine’s Day and Super Bowl Sunday), Scripture, and topics that teens care about.
