Monster Cage

Timbuktoons was asked by NorthPoint Ministries (specifically KidStuf, their K-5th Grade Ministry) to create a series of monster characters for a series they were developing for all of their campuses.. The series created by BigStuf usually focus on a single “big idea.” In this case the big idea was self-control.

The concept for these monsters centers around the idea that normal kids turn into monsters when they don’t exercise self-control.

Project Challenges

• Make four distinct characters that were monstrous but not scary to the younger grades
• Budget and Time constraints
• Getting concepts approved that met the needs of every NorthPoint campus

Our Solution

• Timbuktoons established the art direction as fun, colorful but not too scary
• We created bumper videos, coloring pages, stickers as well as a “Monster Cage” series logo

KidStuf is the place where kids and parents learn together about God’s Big Ideas! It’s a 45-minute fun, digital, interactive experience that happens once a month from September through May. Because our goal is to partner with parents, we launch the Big Idea that K–5th graders are learning about in UpStreet all month long. We also provide each family with a KidStuf Take-Out so that parents can help their kids apply the Big Idea at home—where it matters most! We also provide an Encore performance of KidStuf on the Friday following KidStuf Live.
