- I have a closet of fabrics organized by color to be used as craft supplies or props i.e. water for a river, communion cloths, costumes, and more. Large pieces are useful for drama sets.
- Baskets of all kinds collected at our rummage sale used for props when setting a table, displaying wheat and grapes for the last supper, placing baby Moses in a basket, etc. When not in use, they are part of the biblical times room decor. We find many uses for the baskets throughout the church year.
- Scarves in bright colors to wave in the telling of various stories - flame colors for Pentecost, water colors for any water story.
- Googly eyes are often a requested, so I keep a variety of those.
- Small seashells, smooth stones
- Washable paints, foam brushes, paint shirts, watercolors, and watercolor paper
- Glue of various types - tacky glue, school glue, glue sticks and glue guns are all needed and used.
- A supply of bubble wrap used for painting water backgrounds by painting the bubble wrap and pressing the wet paint side onto paper.
- We use glow sticks on Christmas Eve, and I save the hard can they come in to make rain sticks. Any other hard tubes work well for this.
- Large rolls of bulletin board type paper for making murals, tracing the outline of children, creating large trees or other drama props.
