Activities:

  • NEED: Red or pink posterboard, marker, and scissors
  • DO: Before the Activity: Draw a large heart on the poster board and cut out. Then cut the large heart into four large puzzle pieces.                           During the Activity: Set the puzzle pieces on the floor of your activity area and encourage the child to complete the puzzle. Celebrate with them when they finish.                                                                       After the Activity: Talk about how we’ll hear a story about God’s special gift for us.
  • Say: Before the Activity: “Friend, look at these big puzzle pieces! Let’s help each other put it together. I wonder what the shape will be.”                  During the Activity: “Great job of helping put the puzzle together. What did the puzzle make? That’s right! It’s a heart. Hearts remind me of love. Let’s mix the pieces up and see how fast we can put the puzzle together this time. (Repeat as desired.) That was fun! I like working on puzzles with my friends.”
            After the Activity: “God loves us SO much that He gave us a special gift we’ll hear about in our Bible story today.”
