Hero Headquarters Vacation Bible School 2010

Hero Headquarters is the 2010 VBS by Standard Publishing. The premise is that we can all be heroes in God's Kingdom. The curriculum outlines fictional accounts of heroes that are not in the Bible but still do wonderful things in the eyes of the Lord.

Hero Headquarters promises to offer:
  • Easy Planning
  • Powerful Projects to Make and Share
  • Flexible and Full of Options
  • Easy to Decorate
  • Relevant for All Ages
The snacks are quite creative. How can you go wrong with "Naaman Dippers" and "Miracle Man Salad"? The crafts and activities will keep kids involved and singing a tune!

For more information, go to the Free Downloadable Planning Book. This publication provides a wealth of information on everything from music, snack and activities. The program can be adapted for kids of all ages.

From all appearances, Hero Headquarters promises to be a lot of fun with meaningful lessons that kids will enjoy and apply to their lives. I give this one a thumbs up! My only reservation about this program is that it seems to promote teachers wearing capes tied around their necks. While this may be okay for adults, it can be a choking hazard for children. Standard Publishing offers a safe alternative on their website: http://www.standardpub.com  Their VBS Hero's Cape has been fully safety tested and will not put pressure on the neck area. If you use home made capes as props, let children know they should not do this at home!
