What We Learned:

Today, we’ve concluded the creation series! The Preschoolers have learned what God created each day through Bible verses, motions, crafts and yes, even w/ snacks! Parents, ask your children what they’ve learned and help them remember/recite that everything is created by the almighty God whom we serve. Let them know God loves them and cares for them all the time. Please pay a visit to their classroom and see the wall diorama they’ve created during the creation Sundays.

Words to Remember:
(Bible versions used are selected to help young children learn and understand the meaning of scripture.)

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1 NIV

Practice this verse several times with your child during the week. This will not only help your child to remember the verse, but also it will help to reinforce what he or she has learned during class.

Suggested Parent/Child Activity:

Take a walk around your neighborhood or take your child to the park. Let your child point out things in nature that he or she remembers hearing about in the lesson. Explain that God made everything in nature, and He made it for us to enjoy!

Daily Prayer:

Dear Lord, thank You so much for all of the beautiful things all around me. Thank You for sharing the smells, colors, and shapes of all of your creation. Help me remember to thank You every day for the big things and the little things in nature. Amen.
