Symbol Cards Pack – Kids

Pack of image cards for discussion in smaller groups

Symbol card examples

Symbol cards are a great way to encourage conversation, openness and vulnerability in a small group setting. Using imagery as a conversation starter encourages people to open up and push past the surface-level much quicker and easier.

Symbol cards are a great tool to add to your ministry kete – whether it’s small groups, youth ministry or kids church! This symbol cards pack is created with kids in mind but can be used with any age or group!

The first edition of symbol cards can be found here: https://www.salvationarmy.org.nz/resource/symbol-cards
