Bible Story: (found under Make it True )The story is simple this week-God made me, because God loves me.  I will have the body puzzle in a bag for you to use in telling the story. You could also read the creation story out of the Children's Bible.  (There should be some in your closet or Tammy can give you the one out of my bucket. )  I have put some additional story books in my bucket that would be fun to read with the children.
 
Activities:  (Make it Stick and Make it Fun)

• Let's smell:  This is just a fun game kids would love if you could bring anything from home. Can discuss "who gave us the sense of smell"  Talk about how good certain things smell.  i.e.  popcorn, etc. 
• Head, shoulders, knees, and toes-could sing this song during the story time....kids love it and they especially enjoy when you go fast, faster, fastest....The sillier the better!  God made us to laugh.
• Play doh people- There should be play doh in your closets you can use to make people.  
• Body puzzle-You could cut out the pieces and put in a baggy and children can then assemble their own puzzle and glue on construction paper.  Or, you could let them color it and then they could cut it apart and put pieces in a baggie. This has been a popular craft in the past.   
  

 

Sunday September 25th

Sunday Theme: God does what he says he is going to do.

Announcements:  

• There WILL be music this Sunday.
• This is a  "fill in" Sunday, when it comes to the curriculum. This is a stand-alone lesson not tied to any other themes. (But, a super fun story!)  Usually we  will follow a monthly theme; but, the calendar didn't quite align when we began.

Curriculum:  Week 1 of1: I can believe what God says.

• Bible Story:  Noah.

Prayer Time: don't forget this.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True ) The story of Noah.  They have you bring a tool belt and some stuffed animals. You can modify this.  (I believe 109) has a plastic tool bench.  I also have lots of books you can choose from to read or have the kids look at afterwards.  
They sort of stop the story at the point where the rain comes, because they split it into two weeks.  But, you are welcome to finish out the story with the dove and finding dry land.  The main point is that God does what he says he will do. 
 
Activities:  (Make it Stick and Make it Fun)

• Two by Two:  Emphasizes the number of spies in the story.
• Animal toss-easy game to play--we have some stuffed animals around the rooms and we have baskets you can use.  Just let me know. 
• What happens next? Sequencing activity--fun to do with cutting, etc.

September  Scripture:  Please go over scripture each week with the motions

Prayer Time: don't forget this.

Bible Story: (found under Make it True ) The story of Joshua and Caleb and the spies is not as often heard, but it will be a fun one to tell.  I will have a set of 12 sticks in your room for you to use for the 12 spies. 
 
Activities:  (Make it Stick and Make it Fun)

• 10-2 Emphasizes the number of spies in the story.
• I spy-easy game to play with things in the room.  
• Hidden pictures-could do this as a group activity.  Give each child his/her own sheet and you could work together if you want.
• Circles and Squares-I really like this activity as it helps the children process how the Bible truth can become real to them. It gives examples for them.
