For this activity, I had the girls put on a name tag, but with the name of a TV or movie character. They were to act like that character while we played some card games for 20 minutes. Afterward, we talked about how their behavior changed when they took on someone else's name.
Then I talked about how our behavior should change when we take on Christ's name and how we should honor that name.
For a treat, since this one is about the sacrament, we had small bottles of water and Twinkies (which look like little loaves of bread . . . right?).
Hindsight Advice:
-Let them know in advance that they will be acting. It makes it easier to come up with ideas. (Personally, I should've been Gru from Despicable Me and when it was my turn at Go Fish, just frozen the other players and taken the cards I needed!)
-20 minutes is a long time to play a dollar store game of Go Fish. That's all I could afford, though, and I didn't realize it'd be lamer than a regular version.
