Put the Bible Back Into Vacation Bible School

Backstage With The Bible is our flagship VBS curriculum, created to give children a high view of Scripture while clearly presenting the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Kids will love using their VIP passes and Bibles to gain access to the various backstage areas of your church. They’ll tour a recording studio, go backstage at the concert, and most importantly — dig deep into God’s Word.

Over five days, your kids will walk through the full gospel arc: from creation and the fall, through the law, the cross, grace, and the Great Commission. They won’t just hear about the Bible — they’ll open it, read it, and learn to love it.

Best for: Churches that want a Bible-knowledge-heavy VBS that still feels fun and immersive.
Backstage With The Bible

5-Day Bible Teaching Breakdown

Each day builds on the last, walking kids through the full arc of the gospel — from who God made us to be, to our need for a Savior, to the cross, grace, and the call to share the good news.

Day 1: Superstar

You are fearfully and wonderfully made… — Psalm 139:14
What set the Israelites apart? | Exodus 1
Children learn that God created us in His image, to praise Him and bring Him glory. Reading from Exodus, they’ll discover the differences between the Egyptians and the Israelites. Following God may not be popular or easy, but God always remembers His people and He is worthy of our very best.

Day 2: Ten Commandments

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. — Romans 3:23
The mirror of God’s law shows us our sin. | Exodus 20
The Ten Commandments are given to us by God to help us see our sin. God is the standard of perfection and we can never be good enough on our own. Children will see that we all sin by breaking God’s laws. Our sin is the barrier between God and us — but God provided a way through His Son, Jesus.

Day 3: The Cross

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son… — John 3:16
Jesus paid the penalty for our sins. | Matthew 1 & 27
Yesterday we heard the bad news. Now it’s time for the GOOD news! Children will read about Jesus’ birth, death, and resurrection in the gospel of Matthew and how He made it possible for our sins to be forgiven forever.

Day 4: Saved By Grace Through Faith

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith… — Ephesians 2:8
What was the rich young man missing? | Mark 10
Children will read about the rich young man in Mark 10. Although the man thought he was a good person, Jesus pointed out that he loved his possessions more than God. There is nothing we can do on our own to earn our place in Heaven. It is only by God’s grace that He forgives those who believe.

Day 5: Go Fish

“Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” — Matthew 4:19
Jesus instructs His followers to make disciples. | Matthew 28
In Matthew 28, Jesus gave His disciples the Great Commission. After learning about God’s great love and what Jesus did for us, children will be encouraged to share the good news. It’s time to Go Fish!

Songs Kids Will Be Singing All Year Long

Every song in Backstage With The Bible was written to teach biblical truth — not just entertain. These aren’t filler tracks. They’re the kind of songs that get stuck in your head and plant Scripture in kids’ hearts at the same time.

Song What Kids Learn
The B-I-B-L-E The importance and power of God's Word
Bible Book Bop All 66 books of the Bible — in order
Superstar We are made in God's image (Psalm 139)
Ten Commandment Boogie God's law and our need for grace (Exodus 20)
Stories The Bible is full of true stories that point to Jesus
Saved Salvation by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8)

"We wanted something more than the average VBS that every other church was doing. We wanted to teach the Bible and this was perfect. Kids really love the music, much more than some other VBS music that sounds too 'kiddie' for the older kids. It's so awesome to see 5th and 6th grade boys dancing and singing. We had one young boy that doesn't attend our church ask if he could skip games and crafts to 'go learn more about Jesus.' We also had 33 kids accept Jesus as their savior."

"Our kids loved every moment of it. We closed with a prayer for salvation. This Bible School program is the best I've ever seen — yep, the BEST EVER!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! The music videos alone make this worth it.  Each curriculum was specifically designed to be adaptable for Sunday school (4–5 week series), midweek programs, after-school clubs, and summer day camp formats. The daily schedule is built for a 3-hour VBS block, but the modular design means you can spread it across multiple weeks easily.

Absolutely. That’s the whole point. With 6 programs, you can rotate one per year and go 6 full years before repeating. Most kids will have aged out before they see the same curriculum twice. And if you do repeat one, the content is deep enough and the format flexible enough that it feels fresh, especially with new volunteers and new kids each year.

All 6 programs are designed for Preschool through 5th grade. Each includes a separate Preschool Bible Study track with age-appropriate content, plus Elementary content for older kids. The games, crafts, and snacks work across all age groups with easy modifications.

No. The Bible hasn’t changed, and neither has our commitment to quality. Our programs were designed from day one to be timeless. There are no pop-culture references that expire, no dated technology requirements, and no trendy themes that feel stale after one summer. The music is original and performed by Go Fish (2M+ albums sold), the video production is professional, and the Bible teaching goes deeper than most programs on the market today — regardless of when they were published.

You’ll receive printable PDF files for all leader guides, planning forms, and promotional materials, plus video files (MP4) for music videos, karaoke videos, and Bible teaching segments. Everything is ready to print or play immediately.

Start with one! Single programs are just $99 for a complete digital download. Try it this summer and see what your team and kids think. When you’re ready to add more, you can always upgrade to a bundle later.

Just a way to play videos and music — a laptop and projector, a TV, or even a tablet will work. No proprietary apps, no special hardware, no subscriptions. Everything plays on standard devices.

All Go Fish music is available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and every major streaming platform. Kids and families can keep listening all year long — which means the songs and truths from VBS keep reinforcing what they learned.  For copyright reasons, the videos and music may not be posted online or reproduced digitally without permission.  Again, all music is available on all streaming platforms!

Most VBS programs fall into one of two camps. Some publishers go all-in on the bells and whistles — huge production value, flashy themes, tons of hype — but when you look closely, the Bible teaching is watered down. Others are theologically rock-solid but feel like a Sunday school lesson stretched over five days — no energy, no excitement, and kids are checking out by day two.

We built Go Fish VBS to land right in the middle. The music is professional (we've sold over 2 million albums). The themes are fun and engaging. Kids have a blast. But we never sacrifice the truth to get there. Our programs teach kids to open their Bibles, find the verses, and engage with God's Word directly — every single day.

Here's how we see it: if unchurched kids walk through your doors for one week out of the entire year, why would you waste that opportunity on fluff? Let's give them the one thing the world can't — the Gospel and God's Truth. That's what Go Fish VBS is built to do.

On top of that, we don't make you buy new curriculum every year, and we include everything in one purchase. No nickel-and-dime add-ons. No annual subscriptions. Just great VBS at a price that makes sense.
