Leader Guide

David and Goliath Figures

  • David Pattern and Goliath Pattern, one each per child
  • Optional: cardstock
  • Washable markers, crayons, or colored pencils
  • Scissors for children
  • Tape

Make the figures ahead of time to show the class as examples.

Hand out materials and tell children to color and cut out their David and Goliath patterns. Have them put their names on the back of each figure. Follow the instructions to make and tape circle bases for each figure so David and Goliath can stand up. Talk about how small David seems in comparison to Goliath, but how David’s faith in God helped him defeat the giant. Have the children take home the figures as a reminders that God can help them defeat the “giants” in their lives.
