Make one copy of the Proverbs Puzzle Pattern for each pair of children.
The book of Proverbs in the Bible has a lot to say about anger. Sometimes we call angry words “cross words.” So, we’re going to do a crossword puzzle with some cross words! You will look up the verses, consider the clues, and complete your puzzle in pairs—so find someone you don’t know very well to be your partner!
Give a puzzle and a pencil to each pair. After a set amount of time, discuss the children’s answers together.
Conclusion: The book of Proverbs was written to teach people wisdom about how to live godly and successful lives. Anger is an emotion that we need God’s help to control. When we are led by the Holy Spirit, we can live joyful lives that glorify God.
