Jesus the Son of God

Bible Verse: Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:13


Message: Jesus is the Son of God and we can be sure that God loves us because Jesus loves all.


Lesson Time:
This Sunday was special, the kids are treated to a video time about Jesus the Son of God. Through a laptop's CD player projected to a white screen, the kids saw Jesus' life summarized - as a baby born in a manger, as a young boy found by his parents inside the temple teaching older people about God, as a grown up man about to be hung on a tree to die.

Teacher Tip: There were some scenes when the kids would ask questions. These times, I press the player pause and explain to them the main point.


Game: In order to prepare the preschoolers to the video time, I let them jump up several times - to exhaust their energies. I let them shout at the top of their lungs too, with the room as soundproof as it could be.

Then, I reminded them that when they are watching, they should be quiet and mindful of their classmates' needs.


Crafts/Arts Time: Coloring Contest
With templates of Jesus hanging on the cross to die, I asked the kids to color the picture while giving their best. They are to share crayons too. Afterwards, I asked them to line up their finished work, properly labeled with their names written on them by them, near the wall for the 'judges' to choose from.

Those with the most number of votes will win.
