A VBS snack station is just the ticket for keeping little conductors fueled up and eager for some faith-filled fun! With plenty of room for displaying food options and helping kids choose snacks, this VBS railroad snack station is a breeze to put together and helps tie your railroad VBS elements together.
Constructing a quick and easy railroad themed VBS snack station is super simple and makes a big impact. Simply cover an 8' folding table with a Navy Blue Plastic Tablecloth. Line the sides of the table with a Cobble Stone Plastic Tablecloth Roll and then hang a couple Canvas Vintage Americana Buntings for some added color. Decorate the top of the table by cutting an Artificial Grass Roll in half lengthwise and then place a Railroad Track Table Runner on top. Sprinkle some Bible Verse Stones around the table for an inspirational touch. You can even place a CP 60 Jupiter Train Cardboard Stand-up at the font of the table to mimic a real-life train engine!
Next, place a Gold Mini Suitcase on top of a Large Stained Wood Crate. Repeat this set-up as many times as you like. Place wrapped snacks or mini water bottles into the suitcases. To make sure the suitcases stay open, apply a line of glue onto both sides of the metal hinge and hold or prop open until the glue has set. Be sure to download our free printable food labels here to add to the suitcase lids.
Hand out Railroad VBS Train-Shaped Cups with Straw so the kids have something fun to "chugga-chugga" some water from.
Insert some snacks into lined up Brown Wooden Crates to mimic train cars and then fill them with snacks. To create the train lollipop holder, we wrapped styrofoam blocks in black paper and placed them inside the wooden crate. To create the faux coal filler, we cut Black Craft Noodles into small sections and used them to create faux coal filler.
