Lesson 1

I am a child of God

Song:

I am a child of God -first two lines only-

Activity:

Previous to class, gather pictures of each of the children from their parents. ONE PER CHILD. Before you start the lesson, tape these pictures around the room. When you start, tell the kids that you have a picture of each of them somewhere in the room that they have to find. --You may have to show them how first--- As you find each child, give that child their picture to hold while you sing, “I am a child of God” (that phrase only).

Craft:

Crowns

Make crowns for them to wear that say “I am a child of God” on the front. Let them do stickers on it, glitter (if you're daring), color, etc.

Sceptors

Using Popsicle sticks with a star at the top...like a wand. Decorate with water colors on the stick and markers for the star.
