We are not sure about the chronological trends concerning vacation Bible schools. We are not sure when this first began, but probably the late-19th century. We know vacation Bible schools were held in the 1920s. I can recall that they were very well established in the 1940s. I attended a couple of years and our family was not very religious. If I recall, my big brother brought me along. They continue to be run by churches, but a much smaller proportion of children attend them. The growing secularization of America and diversity are probably the major factors.
