We have been assigning talks to a specific primary class each week (ie. CTR6, or Val 9, or Sunbeams, etc.) The week prior the children in the assigned class are allowed to volunteer for an assignment (scripture, prayer, talk, reverance person) and reminder notes are sent home w/ them.
We have decided to start doing it a little bit more random, as some of our classes only have 2 children in them, and get a little bit more diversity in age. I am trying to come up with a good idea of how to "assign" talks. I have heard of the idea of pulling childrens names out of a "hat", but I would really like to keep the VOLUNTEERING spirit going. I know that as kids get older they don't like to volunteer for these types of things and have to be assigned to do them......so I am looking for any clever ideas to keep the volunteering spirit in talk "assignments".
