Kids’ Games Book 2
To the parents: The extensive range of games in this book will get the kids out of your hair and away from the TV set, which is good for children's development. The book can also be used as a resource so that you can play with your kids without having to rack your brains thinking up a game. Teachers use this book to entertain students during spare lessons, on games/ physical education afternoons and on school camps. "Kids' Games Book 2" gives parents and teachers a set of active and passive, indoor and outdoor games for children, ranging from 4-14 years. It also includes two special sections; one on party games to give parents valuable activities for amusing 10 to 29 marauding, hyped up party goers. The second is on car games, so that the big interstate or country trip does not develop into whinging from the back seat or a brawl between front seat and back seat passengers. To the kids: This book is for you to use whenever you get that bored feeling. Pick it up, check the weather and if it is nice outside choose a fine weather game or if it's windy or wet, choose a wet weather game. You do not need much equipment to play the games and you can play with friends, brothers or sisters. If you are going on a long car trip read over the car games the day before and take with you what you need to play the ones you like. If you have a party coming up, read through the party games and plan what games would suit you and your friends. Remember, you can play any game at any age as long as you feel like having fun.

Kids' Games Book 1
Author Damien Davis writes: To the Parents: In this book, I have presented games to tax a child's mental capacities and decision making, games to develop a child's coordination, and games to develop cooperation between children. Above all, these games give all children the opportunity to experience good, clean fun. These games are appropriate for both sexes, they require little or no equipment and expense and hopefully they will go a long way towards eradicating any tragic admission by many children. "I was bored on my holidays". To the kids: Turn off your television, tablet, computer or smart-phone and read through the games in this book. If it is wet outside, try the indoor games or if the weather is fine read the outdoor section. If you feel like action, try the active games or if you want a quiet mental game read the passive games. Choose a game you like the sound of, grab a family member or friend and try it out. I can guarantee that every game in this book provides new challenges and is fun to play. Okay, turn off the television, read through the book, choose a game and have some fun.

The Game of Life
"The Game of Life" is a fun yet enlightening action filled VBS or Youth oriented book filled with great analogies of man's three parts, which are body, soul, and spirit. The basketball has three parts outer covering, inner liner, and the air which is a great comparison. There is God's team and the Devil's team. Both want to WIN! We have a star player Jesus Christ, God the Father is the Coach, The Holy Spirit is the water, air, and ball boy, and God's word is the referee "He's the enforcer of the rules just like in an earthly game." We also have cheerleaders. The opposing team has the Devil as the coach, Death as their star player, along with Time marking each second and minute. The book has 5 scenes that are easy to learn and put together for a great VBS or Youth Program. Each scene is progressive starting with Christ's sacrifice, then our sanctification, salvation, stewardship, and last but not least our service to Him. I have also included a few memories about my mission trip to the Philippines last spring, where we had over one hundred youth and adults professed Christ as their personal savior. In addition, I have included a biography of Dr. James Naismith a wonderful Christian coach and the founder of the game of basketball. My burden for the youth was given to me many years ago and I am convinced this book along with God's word, His Spirit, and your burdened heart can bring many to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. God bless you and God's Speed, time is of the essence!
