For parents
Questions you might have.
Who is Virtual VBS for? +
Children ages 6–12. Sessions are built for that range — younger siblings may enjoy watching with a parent, but activities target elementary ages.
Is there a cost to register? +
Registration is free. Your family receives a VBS T-shirt and supply kit at no charge when you sign up by the deadline we share after registration opens.
Do parents need to stay for the whole hour? +
We ask a parent or trusted adult to be nearby for setup and safety, especially for younger children. Many parents use the hour as a faith-filled window while kids participate on screen.
What do we need at home? +
A device with internet, speakers, and a quiet spot to participate. Your supply kit covers most activity materials; we'll note any basic household items in your confirmation email.
How do we get the T-shirt and supply kit? +
After you register, we'll send pickup or mailing details based on your campus and family information. Kits are prepared so your child is ready for Day 1.
What if we miss a day? +
We encourage attending live when possible for games and community. If you miss a session, we'll share recap resources when available so your child can stay on track.
