Activities:

• Home Connection
  • NEED: Activity Pages, tissue paper in various colors; glue sticks; scissors; and a permanent marker.
  • DO:Encourage children to color their puzzle with crayons and work their puzzle pieces on top of the full paper and glue them in place. Have children tear the tissue paper into small confetti pieces. Have them run a glue stick around the border then sprinkle the tissue paper confetti over it.
  • Say: "In our story today, we heard that Jesus showed love to His friends, the disciples, by washing their feet. We know that Jesus loves us, and He wants us to love people like He does. Work the puzzle and glue it to your big paper. (Pause.) Look at your puzzle pieces. Three pieces have pictures of ways to love like Jesus but one is blank. You can think of different ways to love others and fill in that piece with your family. Now let’s make some confetti to decorate your paper. Take some tissue paper and tear it into small pieces. Rub the glue stick over the border on your paper then take your confetti and toss it on your paper. (Pause.) Hooray! In our story, we heard how Jesus washed His friends’ feet to show them how to love people the way He loves people. And loving like Jesus is the one most special, most powerful, most important thing Jesus told us to do. You and you and you (point to all the children) can love like Jesus. Who can love like Jesus? [Bottom Line] I can love like Jesus.”
