I needed an idea for after program singing time, but I wanted to give the kids a break from the same old songs/learning a new song. I saw the mustache on a plate idea somewhere(the song was hidden under the mustache) but I wanted to change things up a bit. Cue TRIVIA GAME!!
I titled the game "I Mustache You A Question". I put together a bunch of questions about primary songs (I have the document of questions I used. I'll add them at the end). A few children at a time came forward (I did 3 for lack of time) and answered their question. If they got the answer correct they pulled a mustache off any plate and got to wear it while they helped lead the next song. It was a hit! It brought lots of laughter and smiles to the room, but they were quick to be reverent again because they all wanted a turn.
(For making the Mustache Men)
I cut lots of different looking mustaches out of felt. Laminated a piece of card stock(helped a ton for durability) and hot glued the mustaches to it. Cut the mustaches out and taped them on the plates that I had drawn silly faces on.
(I stuck a few pieces of tape on the area of the plate I would be removing the mustache from over and over again so it wouldn't rip my plates.) After junior primary was over and put a new piece of tape on each mustache and stuck them back on the plates for sr. primary.

The kids had a wonderful time playing and I was happily surprised how well they answered some of the questions. Hopefully this can help someone out. Let me know if you have any questions.
Enjoy!!

thank you! this is so adorable. sounds like the kids had a blast. I'll use this this sunday!
ReplyDeleteI love this and am doing it this sunday! thank you for your idea. would you mind taking group shots like you did a couple of them and emailing me. I love the faces but can't see them all really clear. Thanks for your help and idea melaniejesse@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteSo cute!!! thank you!!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Using it for a Father's Day singing time activity. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic Idea! I'm using it for Father's Day!
ReplyDeleteI'm filing this away for the Sunday of our program, four weeks away! A better idea than tape for the mustaches and it won't tear the plate at all. I use "putty" that is sticky and stretchable. I take a small amount and roll it into a small ball. Just place it on the back of your mustache/paper/poster and press down on the roll from the front. It will stick just great, then you can pull off the paper and no mark, no tear, no stain! The best kind is the blue kind although it comes in yellow and white. Each is from a different manufacturer. Elmer's sells the blue putty and it is called Poster Tack. Other brand names are Duck Poster Putty, Elmer's Tac 'N Stik, Loctite Fun-Tak, UHU tac. You can find all these brands on Amazon.

ReplyDeleteLOVE this idea! I plan on using it tomorrow for singing time. But I was wondering how you got the mustaches to stick to the kids that came up? did you use painters tape? Did they just hold it on their faces with their hands? Thanks!!! :)
