V.A.L. Guides Welcome

V.A.L. Guides
designed for youth group leaders, teacher, and parents who want to have fun with their kids

Youth Leaders!

Have you ever wished that you could turn to someone to help plan your meetings?

Did you ever want a list of all the resources you need to complete a project?

Could you use step-by-step directions that would save you time (and money) when planning your meeting activities?

Would ready-made hand-outs that you would only need to print be a time-saver for you?

If you answered "YES!" to any of these questions, then you should look into joining forces with V.A.L.

Who is V.A.L.?

V.A.L. is an acronym for Virtual Assistant Leader.

Let’s face it, your time is limited. And if you lead a youth group, whether it’s Scouts, Indian Guides, a church group, or any other, it means that you spend hours planning the next meeting activity, looking for resources, finding hand-outs, trying out the crafts before you show your youth group how to do it.

If you are lucky enough to have a co-leader, you may divide some of the responsibilities, but you are still running against the clock.

V.A.L. has been created to help you better manage your time by providing a complete guide to activities that your youth group will enjoy.

V.A.L. tries out every craft, then, shows you how to do it with simple steps and pictures, so you get it right the first time, every time.

V.A.L. offers alternative ways to accomplish the same goal. We know that the demographics of every youth group vary. To be a successful youth group leader, you need to have alternatives if the conventional activity is not suitable for your youth group.

What does V.A.L. offer?

V.A.L. is a multi-media Leader Guide that contains meeting activities and crafts, field trip possibilities, and interactive computer-based games and learning aids.

The Leader Guide is delivered in an Acrobat pdf format*. Each activity in the detailed V.A.L. Guide explains its purpose, suggested activity, including the estimated amount time the activity will take, alternate activities, supplies, and resources.

Hand-outs are included for activities when appropriate. You can make copies of these hand-outs for everyone in your group.

If the activity is a game, complete instructions as well as any cards, guides, etc. are included. Just print and distribute.

Some activities are multi-media learning activities.

The application software is always included.
