DLTK Bible VBS guide
VBS Daily Schedule
Keep in mind the age of the children, the moods of the children, the number of children and the child to adult ratio all change the time different activities take. Make sure to bring along extra coloring pages, active games and simple crafts to fill in space or be willing to skip something if you're running behind.
If possible keep the groups small throughout most of the activities.
Younger children work better in smaller groups.
