■ What is ‘DynamoKidz Worship’?
Living Worship with all the senses for the N-generation.
This English program consists of monthly worship booklets, audio CDs, and CD-roms that help churches have a dynamic N-generation worship service. It incorporates traditional elements of worship such as praise, prayer, sermons, with non-traditional elements such as chants, games, skits, stories and object lessons, to effectively reach out to the N- generation who are growing up in a media-centered world. Our hope is for a fresh spiritual awakening and revival of children’s worship services. The children will be excited about going to church and leave each service having had lots of fun. But most importantly they will have had their faith strengthened and their lives transformed.
■ Highlights of ‘DynamoKidz Worship’
Children Are Active Participants
There are many moments where the children can participate. This encourages the children to worship God actively.
Lives Are Transformed
Dynamokidz Worship gets the attention of the children and keeps them focused so that their lives can be transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
Effective Through Repetition
Although Dynamokidz Worship consists of many components, the theme is the same each month. This theme is reinforced by the use of memory verse chants, songs, dramas, object lessons, and stories.
Based on the Bible
Each theme and lessons are based on the Bible- children are encouraged to memorize scripture, act out scripture, and apply scripture.
Utilizes Positive Reinforcement
Dynamokidz Worship is a program that praises children in the good points that they have and tries to fix the points that are not so good through gentle teaching and positive reinforcement.
Builds Up Adult Leaders
Dynamokidz Worship is a program not only dedicated to kids but also for adult leaders. The leaders can discover their gifts and talents as they work together as a team to make the service run smoothly.
■ Benefits of DynamoKidz Worship
Dynamic Worship
The children and teachers are all actively engaged in the different aspects of the service. By implementing non-traditional as well as traditional elements and utilizing different senses-visual, auditory, and physical - each service is exciting and alive.
New Monthly Teaching Materials
Each month’s lessons are focused around a central theme that changes every month.
Original Scripture Chants and the Theme-related Song with Dance
Each month’s worship booklet is accompanied by a CD containing the chants and demonstrations of the song and dance.

Preparing for Worship
As all preparations are completed for the day’s service (game set-up, powerpoint tests, props for drama, etc.), the children are led into the worship with the Opening Song being played or sung. The children can be separated boys and girls on different sides of the room to make team management easier.
Pre-Game or Opening Praise
As the children gather and take their seats, a short ice-breaker game can be played or one or two opening praises can be sung.
Countdown
The MC will start the worship service with a countdown.
DynaDude
A teacher comes out dressed in creative attire (i.e. superhero, detective, animal costume) and give clues to what the day’s lesson is about.
Rules
The pastor or teacher can go over the 3 basic rules of DynamoKidz
Worship either by reading them aloud or putting them on powerpoint and having the children read it aloud together:
1) Be joyful and have fun.
2) Listen to the teachers.
3) Be silent when the whistle blows.
Opening Prayer
The whistle can be blown as a teacher or child (previously determined) prays for the service.
Memory Verse Chant
This is the time for children to memorize a verse that is related to the message. They are able to remember the verses for a longer period of time by incorporating rhythm and beat.
Game Time
Children play an interactive and fun game that will lead into that day’s message.
Praise Time
Two or three songs are chosen, in addition to the new theme-related song introduced every month, for a time of praise and worship. (The next parts of DynamoKidz Worship require children to be active listeners. Children need to remain quiet and focused as the message is
given through different mediums.)
Suggestion for keeping children quiet:
Balloons: Separate and seat the students in groups. Assign a different color balloon for each group and hang the balloons on a banner in front of the stage (or where visible). Pop the balloons of noisy groups. A group with the most remaining balloons will become the winning class.
Happy Faces: Teachers can have a few smiling faces (cut out from oak tag) that they give out to children who are being good listeners. At the end of service, children can trade in their smiles for a small piece of candy or small prize.
Explain the rules for the Silent Time and then blow the whistle to mark the beginning of Silent Time. (* Silent Time activities)
The Bible text is shared through a skit performed by teachers and/or older students. The skit can be rehearsed prior to the service and performed that day. If rehearsal time is limited, a narrator can be chosen to read the parts while teachers and/or students can come up to play a specific role in the story.
There is no pressure to memorize lines when the narrator reads the story but having the skits rehearsed would make the best impact. A real-life application of the message is explained through a scientific experiment or observation. The main goal is to trigger the children’s curiosity and motivate them to voluntarily take part in learning.
The message is reinforced through storytelling with visual illustrationson powerpoint or OHP. Some stories are fictional while others tell about real-life people or events that relate to the message.
Sermon and Closing Prayer
The pastor or teacher reiterates the main ideas through a brief sermon that
helps the students to apply the lesson into their daily lives and to respond to the
message through prayer.
Offering & Announcements
New friends can be introduced at this time.
The Lord’s Prayer
Close the worship service by reciting or singing the Lord’s Prayer.
