When you do a quick search for this type of theme on Amazon, it becomes pretty evident that archaeological-themed birthday parties and events aren’t something that happens very often, so finding supplies and foods to match the theme this year may require a little imagination and elbow grease. Through this theme, kids will be digging up truths about Jesus that prove Biblical events are not just stories, but are true and factual events that happened here on Earth. Destination Dig centers around archaeological excavation sites in present day Israel. ![]() Scoping out Destination Dig VBS Snack Ideas was a bit trickier than other VBS themes in the past. ![]() I’ve already put together a post featuring a few ideas for Destination DIG VBS Decor ideas and Craft ideas, which you can find below by clicking directly on the image!

While I don’t believe that VBS 2021 will look “normal” compared to other years, I am hopeful that we will be able to safely congregate with our church families and children in the community to help kids really “dig” into the truths of Jesus as they discover and unearth artifacts that point the world to the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ. I have to say, I never thought I’d see a day when VBS at my own church didn’t happen, and though these times we’re living in are full of turmoil and frustrations, I am so glad that we serve a mighty God who is bigger than all of this that we are experiencing here on Earth. Leaders were left scrambling trying to find a way to safely rework VBS into a virtual or paper format to get the gospel out to children in their communities, and unfortunately so many of us were unable to have VBS at all. The fast spread of COVID-19 cancelled VBS all across the globe and forced many church doors to close all together. It’s no secret that 2020 was the rockiest year many of us have experienced in our lifetime. I absolutely love putting together and sharing my favorite VBS finds with you every year, and it is my hope and prayer that Destination Dig will be the best VBS yet!
