Sunday School Fun Zone's Preschool Crafts, Lessons and Activities God Gave Me Special Abilities! (Spiritual Gifts For Kids) Toddler / Preschool Sunday School Lesson, Crafts and Activities |
||
| The Key Concept for this lesson is: God gives us each special abilities! I can use my special abilities at church! This lesson uses the verses Romans 12:6 and 1 Peter 4:10 as it introduces the children to fun ways they can help at church. The story starts with a church that is too small for the children and tells how all the children helped build and set up the new church. The abilities this lesson discusses are: building, painting, crafts, giving and musical abilities. The Circle Talk Time makes the concepts personal and helps the children talk about the abilities that God gave each of them. For this fun, interactive Sunday School lesson there are many b&w and illustrated story pictures, two church buildings (the old, small one and the new, big one) to use with the children (stickers) that you print or make with restickable glue. These story pictures can be used for the lesson, for bulletin board decorations, as well as for play sets for the children to play with. There is a pretend play activity, a song with actions, and another activity that gives the children a chance to practice their abilities! You have the option to choose from four different printable Special Abilities theme crafts: Three sticker pictures (made with restickable gluesticks) or a booklet comprised of all of the special abilties coloring book pictures shown below. You will have access to all of the printable resources shown below when you join Sunday School Fun Zone! Many teachers use our curriculum to supplement their regular curriculum to have an interactive bible story, extra crafts and bible pictures to color, for preschool, story pictures, bulletin board pictures, action songs, rhymes and fun activities for their preschool and toddler Sunday School classes, Children's church, Wednesday evening children's classes, Christian preschool classrooms, and Christian homeschools. | |||
