Tonight’s featured game
Connection Capture
Every new card can change the table. Children stay engaged because they are watching for a match, preparing an explanation, and hoping to collect a long row of cards.

A story worth telling

Two more ways to play
Choose a different rhythm when your family wants it.
Connection Capture can be the family favorite, while the other published games offer a shorter or more open-ended experience.

Different Bible knowledge. The same chance to belong.
Give children more choices
A few extra cards can turn knowledge gaps into confidence and momentum.
Help finish the story
Let the child make the connection; an adult can add the missing details.
Play in mixed-age teams
One person notices the picture, another remembers the story, and both contribute.
“The goal is not to know the most. The goal is to discover stories together.”
Let the story follow
Questions that feel like conversation—not a quiz.
