It’s time again for another school supply idea to be used for women’s ministry.  Today’s tip is using the small individual size white boards at your meetings.  These are great especially if you do a lot of games and icebreakers where you have the ladies write down their answers.  Nice for multiple choice answers where they just need to write a letter in response to each question.

You can normally get these for $1.00 at the dollar stores.  The one in the photo I purchased at Target in their $1.00 bins.  They look like notebook paper.  Of course you’ll notice I wrote on the back of the pager:)  I would probably only recommend using these for small groups under 15 (which is what a lot of you tell me you have) as you will need one for each lady.  You will have to purchase the dry erase markers as well so it is a little investment.

These are also great for small size Sunday School kid’s classes.  I taught 4-6 grade Sunday School for a lot of years in a few different churches and I know my kids would have loved to use these for the little quizzes and questions I gave them each week about the lessons.  It’s kind of neat that you can now get the dry erase markers in all kinds of colors.

Tip:  Have someone in charge of cleaning the white boards and recapping the markers tightly after each use before they are put away.  These type of markers tend to dry out quickly if they are not capped properly.

I found these whiteboard strips (above) in the Target $1.00 bins too.  Thought they’d be fun to write out labels for your food at a Back to School Themed Event.  If you are having a small get together, they would serve nicely as name place cards.  Use the larger individual size ones for writing out Bible verses or sayings and prop up on your event tables.

Have a blessed and creative day,
