Object:
a long, hollow cardboard tube (from plastic wrap, paper towels, etc.)
Good evening, boys and girls. I brought an empty tube with me tonight. Do you ever play with these at home? (let them answer) What do you do with them? (let them answer) Some of you use them to look through like a spy glass of a pirate. (let one child demonstrate) Some of you play a trumpet with them. (let another child demonstrate) Those are two things I wanted to talk about tonight. Spyglasses and trumpets! Our verse tonight says something about both of them. Do you know any verses in the Bible that talk about spyglasses and trumpets? (let them answer) I didn't think so.
