Does it get harder to remember the longer she sits in darkness? When she turns on the flashlight, she should look around the room to see if things are different from her memory. After a few minutes, she should try to remember the details again. As she sits, she should also think about the difficulty of remembering details. She should try to imagine the room and its details. The child should take a flashlight and sit in a dark spot with all lights off. It's an activity that you can perform in Sunday school class or at home after dark. This lesson reminds children of the danger of choosing darkness over light. Sinners who don't follow Jesus may sin until they get caught and are shown the error in their ways. Point out that getting caught is not enjoyable. Ask the kids to remember if they enjoyed their stolen item. Not only were they disobeying, it was also a sin because it was stealing. For example, ask if anyone has ever taken an extra cookie or candy even though they were told not to touch it. Relate this to an experience that a child may have had. That's because if they come closer to Jesus, they will see the depth of their sin. Those who like to do bad things and sin choose not to be near the light. The verse deals with the choice between darkness and light. If you have the budget for it, consider buying plain white light switches and letting the kids paint them.
Draw templates for light switches and let the kids decorate one for their room. You can follow this lesson up with a craft.
Use this as a metaphor for Christ's light. Reinforce the idea that light drives away darkness by simply turning the light in the room off and then on. Discuss the passage and reassure them that those who walk with Jesus will never have to walk alone or in darkness.
