Another game idea for Sparks. I loved the idea of Hi Ho Cherry-O, but all those little cherries sounded like such a mess! I had a bunch of 1" porcupine balls that are very fruity colored so I thought a fruit of the spirit version of the game was in order.
I mod-podged the trees onto dollar store foam board and then used my husband's band saw to cut them out. I also cut out inside the circles so the balls can sit into them. I made up the spinner & borrowed some small colored cups from another game & it's ready to go! Good practice taking turns, following directions, and hopefully learning some fruits of the spirit too :) My favorite part is the sharing space on the spinner where a kid not only gets a fruit ball from their tree, but they also get to share one with a friend too. Unlike the original game that is only four players, my version is for six kids since the tree boards just slip into the bag with all the pieces when done.
LOVE!
