Primary Singing Time Jeopardy

This week I am going to do a review game for all of the songs we have learned to date for the Primary Program.  I wanted to do something that would allow us to sing a lot of songs more than once, but not get boring.  So I came up with this game that is loosely based on Jeopardy.  There are a lot of ways you can do this including making a digital game board, but after considering lots of different ideas I decided to go with a hands on printed game.  This is what my game board looks like. I made each category a different color so it would be easier for the children to keep track of what was available.

My categories are Name That Tune, Fill In The Blank, Fun Things and Picture Clues.  The program songs that I am going to be using are Heroes of the Scriptures, The Church of Jesus Christ, Baptism, Jesus Once was a Little Child, Holding Hands Around the World, and Come Follow Me.  I am also going to use a few fun songs, that list includes,Dearest Mother (our Mother's Day Song), Books of the New Testament, A Child's Prayer and Sing a Song.  You can easily adjust the game to use whatever songs you want to review.  

To play the game I will have a child choose a category and $ amount.  We will turn over the matching card and follow the directions on the card and then we will sing the matching song.  I am going to have the primary children as a whole play against me.  The child who chooses the card will get a chance to answer first, but if they need help they can ask any other primary child in the room.  If  they are able to answer correctly the primary will get the points if not then I will get the points.  You could also split the primary into teams using different methods, boys vs girls, teachers vs children... I have chosen to do it this way because I think it is less competitive and helps the children work together. I have put each program song in at least two different categories so even if we don't get through all of the cards we should sing all of the program songs at least once.  Here's what the game board looks like with all of the questions showing.  

To make the game you can download the game board and questions HERE.  You will need to print out pages 5-9  five times each on your different colored papers.  Page 10 will be printed 5 times for the "Name That Tune" category, then you will need to decide which 5 songs you will use and match them up with the $ amounts.  I would suggest making a list for yourself and the pianist.  Once you have printed all of your game board pieces I would suggest using double sided tape to adhere the questions to the $ amount that they go with.  That way you won't have a lot of loose papers floating around and getting miss placed.  I plan on putting my game board on the chalkboard with magnets.  If it ends up being too big I'll just lay it out on the floor.  

I think the answers are pretty self explanatory, but just in case here are the answers for each category in order from $100-$500.  

Name That Tune- The songs I am using are Books of the New Testament, The Church of Jesus Christ, Dearest Mother, A Child's Prayer, and Holding Hands Around the World.

Fill in the Blank- Savior (Come Follow Me), little and child(Jesus Once Was a Little Child), immersion and Jordan's (Baptism), singing and world (Holding Hands Around the World), Ammon and sword (Heroes of the Scriptures)

Picture Clues- Baptism, Jesus Once was a Little Child, A Child's Prayer, Heroes of the Scriptures, and Holding Hands Around the World.  These picture clues could easily be used with different songs that have similar ideas.
