Here’s a joyful Wind and Fire Craft for Pentecost — simple, symbolic, and perfect for children’s ministry or homeschool. It helps kids visualize the Holy Spirit’s arrival as described in Acts 2.
🧺 Materials
- Red, orange, and yellow tissue paper (for fire)
- Paper plates or cardstock circles (for base)
- Straws or paper tubes (for blowing wind)
- Glue sticks and tape
- Markers or crayons
- Optional: glitter, stickers, or small dove cutouts
✂️ Instructions
- Prepare the base
Cut a circle from cardstock or use a paper plate. Write “The Holy Spirit came like wind and fire!” around the edge. - Create the flames
Tear or cut tissue paper into flame shapes — red, orange, and yellow. Glue them in the center or around the edge. - Add the wind
Tape a straw or paper tube to the back. When children blow through it, the tissue flames flutter — showing the “mighty wind.” - Decorate with symbols
Add a small dove or heart to remind them that the Holy Spirit brings peace and love. - Finish with Scripture
Write Acts 2:4 or Jeremiah 31:33 on the back: “They were all filled with the Holy Spirit.”
💡 Teaching Connection
Explain that:
- The wind reminds us of God’s invisible power.
- The fire reminds us of His presence and purity.
- The dove reminds us of peace and love.
Together, they show how the Holy Spirit came to live in believers’ hearts.
