Do I have to buy the VBS Starter Kit to participate?

Not at all. Even if you don’t participate in Crocodile Dock, you can take part in Operation Kid-to-Kid. It’s a great way to give your children—and everyone else at your church—a heart for missions!

We do suggest you purchase a Crocodile Dock Ultimate Director Go-To Guide, since the detailed information there will help you have a more successful Operation Kid-to-Kid experience.

CAN I USE A DIFFERENT COMFORT CRITTER?

Not if you are distributing it through International Bible Society for disaster relief. They’re counting on receiving these Comfort Critters with the special message of God’s love.
IBS has learned it’s important that items distributed to children should be identical. No child should feel less special because his or her Comfort Critter doesn’t look like the others.

Do I have to send the COMFORT CRITTERS to International Bible Society for distribution?
Feel free to tweak your Operation Kid-to-Kid™ program. You can use your bears as a local community service project—or send the items with your church mission team.

Can my preschoolers help?
Absolutely! Preschoolers love to stuff the bears with polyfil. Little ones will be proud that they helped make these soft, cuddly Comfort Critters!
