Small paintbrushes
Optional -- A clean paint can (to carry the rocks into the room)

3. Give each child a small, smooth rock, a small paintbrush, and some craft paint.

Challenge the children to keep their "rock person" with them all week and to use it as a reminder to give of themselves as Christians during the coming week by sharing the Good News with someone or by sharing the love of Jesus with someone by helping out, being a friend, or doing a favor or special kindness for someone.
