Pick a Sunday Morning Ritual
Set a consistent time each Sunday morning (maybe with breakfast or after getting dressed). 3 minutes is all you need. The routine builds anticipation and signals to kids that faith is important.
Watch Together
Gather around a tablet or screen. Let kids see that you're interested in the story too. The 3-minute length is perfect for young attention spans and multi-tasking families.
Use the Devotional
Download the weekly devotional (included with activities). It has reflection questions designed for kids. Let them share their thoughts. There are no "wrong" answers in faith conversations.
Do an Activity Together
Spend 15-30 minutes on a craft, worksheet, or coloring activity. These aren't "homework" — they're ways to keep the lesson alive through the week. They're also great screen-free activities for weekday evenings.
Extend the Conversation
During the week, reference the story. "Remember how brave David was?" or "That reminds me of when Aisha...". These touchpoints help the lesson stick in kids' minds.
💡 Pro Tip for Busy Families
Can't do this every Sunday? Do it when you can. Even monthly ZURIO moments build faith rhythms. The goal isn't perfection — it's connection.
Using ZURIO at Church
Sunday School Replacement
Use ZURIO as your primary curriculum. Play the 3-minute episode, then lead discussion or activities with your class. You save prep time while providing professional-quality content.
- • Best for: Smaller groups, volunteer-led classes
- • Time investment: 30-45 minutes total with activity
- • What you need: Projector/screen + sound, printable activity
Supplement Your Curriculum
Use ZURIO as an opener or closer to your existing lessons. The video engages kids immediately, then your teacher dives deeper with your church's specific curriculum.

- • What you need: Projector/screen
All-Ages Worship
Show ZURIO during a multi-generational service. Adults enjoy the storytelling too, and it creates a shared experience for families to discuss afterward.
