It can be an interactive digital play and learn space utilising a very popular game and socialising platform.  There are a few 'Christian' games, or places, but maybe one...

Alpha Youth Zooming

During our time online, we still caught up with our kids over zoom.  To ensure that they were depending their faith, we went back to the basics by watching the Alpha youth program over zoom through sharing our screen. It gave the opportunity to engage in deep discussions about the topics which they were discussing.  The kids feedback was that it was interesting and they connected well with the Alpha youth series.

Youtube Humour Ads for Corps Life
