Rachel had the idea of giving a little spice to each day with an outward sign of some idea. For example: wearing 3 ponytails (or 4?) for the number of women in the book of mormon. I think this would be something fun for the cabins to come up with as part of their bonding. Then we could guess why they are doing what they are doing..
Maybe to help their counselors guide their thinking, we could come up with a list of possibilities that would appeal to them or help them see what we are considering. The best would be if these could somehow be also tied into the morning devotional they do with their cabins.
Here are a few to get us started--as you'll see, help is needed!:
Old Testament:
Paint Eyes like Egyptians
Carry a staff
Carry a Basket
Pin on a flame (made of paper) to your shirt (write: Can't touch this!) on it. (Shadrach, Meshach, & Abednego)
Wear a wig (Samson)
Braid hair elaborately or wear a headress/tiara (Esther)
New Testament:
Wear sunglasses (blind)
Wear perfume (frankincense)
Wear a bagel on a necklace (is that too wierd??) (Bread of Life)
Book of Mormon:
Ponytails for the number of women in the Book of Mormon
Turn your staff into a title of liberty--write what you would defend
Carry a compass (put it on a necklace) (liahona)
Shining stones
Doctrine and Covenants (we will be travelling in public this day):
Wearing Cut-offs
Wear a rubber band as a bracelet for each member of your team--so that you all make it together to the end--write their names on the bracelets.
