Mini-kits prompt the same remembering as the complete Bi-Folkal kits,
but they are designed for a shorter program series on a smaller budget.
You'll still find a media presentation and a leader's guide stuffed with
program ideas and discussion topics. You'll have to gather most of your
own things to touch and make your own photocopies. The red canvas bag
is smaller than the blue and yellow kit bag, but it still holds a lot
of programming inside!
