Leader Guide
Craft
- Bibles or the Superbook Bible App
- Tables
- Some or all of the following items: craft sticks, glue, tape, clay or modeling dough—be aware of any wheat allergies, pom-poms, chenille sticks—pipe cleaners, crayons, markers, paper, card stock, construction paper, clean and empty containers that can be reused, scissors, or any other craft items children can create with.
Read Ephesians 2:10:
For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago.
We read this verse earlier in our lesson. God created Earth with sky, land, sea, animals, fish, birds, plants, and human beings—each with a specific purpose, and all good! Genesis 1:31 says God looked over all He had made, and He saw that it was very good!
You will have a chance to create an item, name it, and give it a good purpose. For instance, you may create a robot to help pick up the trash; or you may create a new type of toy, or tool, or building. Use your imagination and creativity! You will each have a chance to share your creations with the class and tell us what the purpose is for your creation.
Place the materials on the tables and give children time to make their creations. Allow time for them to share their creations with the class, and make sure they explain the purpose of each item.
You made some interesting creations, each with a purpose—great work! Let’s end this activity by saying our SuperTruth together: “God created me for a purpose.”
