There definitely is a learning curve with this gospel tool, but all the kids got it. The grunge graphics are great for older kids.

Once you practice this, you can show it to many different ages while reciting it out loud. This style appeals to older children. The instructions that come with the tools are invaluable. They teach you how to use the tool and how to present the Gospel while using it. Children want to see me do it over and over again until they learn it and each time, I recite John 3:16 out loud. Then I say, “Would you like to try it?”, the can’t wait for that moment. I usually have to show them again one or two more times, but that just gives me more opportunity to recite the verse again!

I have used this in teaching the memory verse in scripture in schools. The children were so fascinated with it, that they were playing with it weeks afterward. It not only breaks the verse into achievable chunks,but especially engages the restless kineasthetic learners, as well as the visual and linguistic ones. Even the most reluctant child could remember the verse! It also helped in them willing to talk and think about the verse. I will use it again!

I used the John 3:16 Grunge FlipAbout with a group of 10- to 14-year-old girls. They were totally fascinated by it! What I really like about this gospel presentation tool are that: (1) It is very easier to use. (2) It breaks up the verse into manageable parts, so that we could take our time to discuss each part to ensure they truly understand the gospel message. (3) The folding mechanism is captivating without being distracting. When the girls first saw the flipabout, they were amazed and curious to know how it works. After being given less than a minute to examine it, they were happy to listen to my presentation, and they were fully engaged in a discussion about the verse.
