Activities:

- NEED: Activity Page, scissors, crayons or washable markers, glue sticks, and a permanent marker
- DO: Encourage children to fold their paper at the thick lines. Paper should be folded so the house design is on the outside of the fold. The words will be on the back of the house. Have children decorate the outside of their house then draw their family on the inside of the house.SAY: “In our Bible story today, Jesus taught us how to live. We heard about two men who built houses, one on the sand and the other on the rock. I have a house for you to make and decorate. Fold your paper at the solid lines. (Pause.) You should be able to see the roof and outside walls of your house. (Help re-fold as needed.) Decorate the outside of your house with the [crayons/markers]. (Pause.) Open your house and draw your family inside. (Pause.) You did a nice job of building your house and showing our family in it. Both houses in our story looked great but then it started to rain, harder and harder. The house built on the sand fell because the rain washed the sand away. But the house on the rock was still standing. The rain couldn’t wash away the rock. Jesus told us this story so He could teach us how to live and be strong like the house built on the rock. We can love everyone like God loves us and treat them like they are important to God. We can share and help, just like Jesus teaches us to do. I’m so glad we have a friend like Jesus to teach us important things. Who teaches me important things? [Bottom Line:] Jesus teaches me important things.”
