April Scripture:  Please go over scripture each week with the motions 
"Love each other as I have loved you."  click here for scripture motions.

Prayer Time: #1 in our top 10:   Ask the kids what you can pray about and lead them in prayer about their personal requests.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True ) Easy story to tell using the props they suggest.  Water is always an easy prop

  
 Activities:  (Make it Stick and Make it Fun)- I will have cardstock, construction paper, and buckets for Tammy to get you if you need. 
  • Who needs water-You could modify this game by printing out or cutting out different pictures and saying "does this need water?"  Show some things that do and some things that don't.
  • Pass the bucket-Easy and we have buckets in the resource room. 
  •  Build a well-this easy coloring sheet would also be fun to do.  Could use as a coloring sheet or art project--could tear brown, black, or grey construction paper. 
  • Water Relay-involves water, but easy to do and kids may like.  Gives them an idea what it was like to have to gather water each day!  (Very different than what we have to do today.)

March Scripture:  Please go over scripture each week with the motions 
"I am with you always." Matthew 28:20  click here for scripture motions.

Prayer Time: #1 in our top 10:   Ask the kids what you can pray about and lead them in prayer about their personal requests.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True ) The Bible story this week is simple, but you may want to bring a small blanket to show what it would be like to lower the man into the house.  You could also have the children sit in a square and all hold sides of the blanket to mimic what it would be like. There are plenty of baby dolls that could be pretend people.

  
 Activities:  (Make it Stick and Make it Fun)-
  • Shake a leg, Carry Baby:-easy no prop activities
  • Cure song under "Friendly Help" activity-could sing together or while you pick up toys.
  • True Story:  an easy craft. You do some counting and story reveiw before the kids color the sheet. 
  •  Injured Foot- could use toilet paper for this. Kids might think this is fun.

March Scripture:  Please go over scripture each week with the motions 
"I am with you always." Matthew 28:20  click here for scripture motions.

Prayer Time: #1 in our top 10:   Ask the kids what you can pray about and lead them in prayer about their personal requests.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True ) The Bible story is fun and you can modify it to make it work for you....add other items you can/can not see., etc. 

  
 Activities:  (Make it Stick and Make it Fun)-
  • Blind movements, Marco Polo-These will be fun and easy activities with no props.  Please be careful as children participate, but they will like these.
  • What do I feel: One of my favorite things to do with children.  They love the idea of feeling things in a bag.
  • BFF Bookmarks: an easy craft.  We have different stickers and stampers you can use.  Let us know Sunday morning. 
  •  Mudface- This activity is going out on a limb a little bit, but the kids would love it.  We have smocks they could put on and wet wipes to use etc.  I would say you could bring just a small bag of dirt to use.
