Back to my trusty potato heads ahead, they are so much fun I almost like playing with them more than the kids. Especially when they got "Darth Tater"! Makes me laugh every time.
Anyway, this time I decided that each part stood for a certain song, for instance shoes were for Come Follow Me, Ears were Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, etc. Some were more of a stretch than others, I'll admit!
I had two blank potato bodies for each side of the room and lots of extra parts strewn around on the table. I also had a 3rd potato head that was already fully dressed. What I did was I would take a part off the fully-dressed one, and then turn it around and two kids from each team would then race to figure out which part was missing and then take that same part and add it to their potato, so as mine got "un-dressed" theirs got "dressed". We would then sing the coordinating song, and the person who had won that round helped me conduct. At the end I gave each team an award "most creative" or "craziest" or "most colorful." Those are some fun taters.
