Shipwrecked Plush Bible Buddies

A lot of people I’ve heard from purchase stuffed animals that look like the bible buddies.  These are used for advertising, vbs decorations, then sometimes given away as prizes during/after VBS.

This year’s Group VBS theme is Shipwrecked {learn more about the theme here}.  The VBS kits are available now.  All of our VBS resources are designed to be used alongside any of the Group starter kits, although I HIGHLY recommend purchasing the ultimate version with digital.

This year’s Shipwrecked bible buddies are:

Hope – Jaguar (Female)
Beacon – Toucan (Male)
Rae – Giant Manta Ray (Female)
Guac – Iguana (Male)
Moe – Sloth (Male)

Here are some stuffed plush bible buddies you can use for decorating and more:

24″ Plush Jaguar

35″ Plush Jaguar

BEACON (TOUCAN)

10″ Toucan Pillow

12″ Plush Toucan

This sloth is marketed as a Valentine’s Day item, so it may be marked down around then (or it may be sold out).

Do you use stuffed animals for decorations or advertising?  I’d love to hear your other ideas for them – comment below!

I am a long-time Vacation Bible School lover.  I’ve lead in several capacities throughout the VBS world and am currently our church’s VBS director.  It is a joy for me to be able to share VBS ideas and resources with others!  I will continue to share VBS ideas here as we prepare for Shipwrecked VBS.  Follow the blog to see more of our ideas and planning!  Please let me know if there are any specific VBS items or ideas you need help with!
