Activities:
- Home Connection
- NEED: Activity Pages, scissors, tape, basket, baby doll, and bandages
- DO: As you review the Bible story, invite the children to help you wrap the baby doll with bandages and put it in the basket. Let the children take turns pushing the basket so the “donkey” can give the baby a ride. Then ask the children to help you take off the bandages because the baby is all better.
- SAY: “Our Bible story today was about a Samaritan man who helped a hurt man. Let’s pretend this baby doll is hurt and needs our help. Here are some bandages. We can wrap the baby doll’s boo-boos like the Samaritan man did in our story. After the Samaritan man wrapped the hurt man’s boo-boos, he put the hurt man on his donkey. This can be our donkey. (Place basket in front of the children.) Look! It’s a donkey head. We can put the baby doll inside, like this. (Put the baby doll in the basket.) When I say your name, you can push the donkey. (Say each child’s name and let them push the donkey a little.) The Samaritan man took the hurt man to a place where he could rest and get all better. He even paid for it! Let’s take all of the bandages off the baby doll because the boo-boos are all better! Yay! (Repeat the activity if time and interest allow.) The Samaritan man in our story chose kindness and helped the hurt man. When Jesus is our friend forever, He can help us choose kindness, too. Jesus can help us do everything! So when I ask, ‘Who can help you do everything?’, I want you to say, [Bottom Line] ‘Jesus can help me do everything.’ Who can help you do everything? [Bottom Line] Jesus can help me do everything. Yay! [Bottom Line] Jesus can help me do everything!”
- MORNING TIME
