• To appreciate the blessing of the daily food we have. The food we eat is to be appreciated not just with our mouth, but with our sight, smell and touch.

• To understand that we eat food for many reasons:

- Food is a joy; it feeds the stomach and it gives us energy. - Food is a comfort; it makes us happy when we are sad. - Food is a strength; it makes us well when we are sick.

I know some of you your kite did not fly as high as you wanted but there were many children in the Sun 9am whose kites flew very high. Do you know there was a miracle that happened last week ? What was it ? (have children respond). Yes, God stopped the rain in time for you to fly the kite ? On Saturday it rained in the afternoon. On Sunday, it rained 1hr before the service. God loves you. He cooled the weather with the rain and just before you board the bus, the rain stopped. We want to pause here for a moment and thank God for His love and faithfulness toward us in answering our prayers and as a form of worship to Him, let’s give our offering to honor and thank Him.

RATATOUTILLE DVD PLAYBACK (15 min) Do not play the whole DVD. Screen the rest of the video when the whole program is over and there’s still time left. Keep the DVD for subsequent weeks’ time filler. Leader: Children, do you know what is the theme of our Holiday Program ? It’s EAT. What does EAT stands for ? Experience and Taste. Well, last week all of us have experienced and taste the goodness and faithfulness of God through His answered prayers. This week, we are going to appreciate why God made food for us. Well, God did not make food for us to eat. He also made food for us to enjoy. For most of us, we never think of food. Food is just food. We eat food so that we have strength. We eat food because mummy cooks and we have to eat. However, today, we are going to EAT, experience and taste the sight, smell and touch of food. We are going to experience everything that is about food and learn to be boys and girls who are appreciative of the daily food God will provide for us through our parents. So, are you ready ? If you are, I want you to show me you are ready. I want you to shout EAT at the count of 3 and we will roll out an EAT movie clip. (Stop at 17:43 at the point when the rat found the restaurant) Leader: I know, you want to continue with the movie but the rat has arrived at the restaurant and is ready to do what…..EAT. So, are the children. So, please listen up to the briefing and don’t get lost. (TC to dismiss the Ks to the 3rd Floor) FOOD TRIVIA (1 hr 10 min) Briefing
