For those of you that approached us after the classes wanting information, 
here it is.
For the Sodom and Gomorrah trick, we got a disposable cookie sheet with edges 
curled up on the sides and ends.  You buy flash paper strips at a local magic 
shop or carnival supply or costume shop.  It cannot be sent through the mail  
it is too flammable.  It is sold to you wet and in two plastic bags for your 
protection.  Do not let the boys near it.  Don't get the kind that flames in 
your hand by your body heat, get the kind that needs a match.  We make balls 
of play dough to hold round toothpicks upright.  Draw outside stairs and 
windows and doors on your strips with a sharpie or gel pen.  Do not make the 
village too far ahead of time because it will dry out.  Follow the directions 
on the package for safety and for time limits.  We sometimes put a little 
sand in the tray to hide the play dough.  Scotch tape the strips onto the 
toothpicks in square Bible day type houses.  Make sure they are standing 
close together for the flame to catch all the way across.  We make little 
palm trees also and set them in between the buildings.  Tell about Sodom and 
Gomorrah and then say "God rained fire down from Heaven", someone hits the 
lights and you touch the match.  In less than one second the village is gone 
and all you have is the flaming toothpicks.  Use Scotch brand tape, it burns 
quickly.  The boys will rush forward, hit the lights again and be sure no one 
runs into the tray and upsets the flaming toothpicks.  (boys don't do things 
like that do they?)  You can also use this to demonstrate the length of a 
"twinkling of an eye" and other Bible stories when God destroyed things by 
fire.  Stay tuned for the next episode.  Janet
