Weird Animals VBS 2014 (Group Publishing)

I have been excited about Weird Animals VBS from Group Publishing since the day it was announced last summer. I ordered this Starter Kit for our church, and it is packed full of everything needed to plan VBS for Summer 2014. This will be the 4th year in a row that I’ve used a Group VBS, and I must say that they are the best in the business for summer VBS programs.

Also check out the other 2014 VBS from Group Publishing: Wilderness Escape.

You can order these straight from Group Publishing, but ChristianBook.com always has the same product for at least 10% cheaper. Watch the promo video and then order the Weird Animals VBS Ultimate Starter Kit!
