Genesis 1:27 New International Version (NIV) 27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
27At nilalang ng Dios ang tao ayon sa kaniyang sariling larawan, ayon sa larawan ng Dios siya nilalang; nilalang niya sila na lalake at babae.
Message
- God created me. He formed all parts of my body.
- God created all of human beings around the world - different and unique.
- I am made in His image.
- I am commanded to take care of all His other creations.
Lesson Introduction
Show up a mirror. Pass it around and ask what they see?
Then, get the mirror and look into it. Describe my face as I see it. Look for the perfect time to say that whenever we look at God's creation, we see a bit of God.
Explain further that it seems like as God created us, He gave us all a bit of Him. Together, along with all His creation, we may see His handiwork, and therefore know Him too.
Lesson Time
Spiritual
Tell the story of Creation again, this time telling it the way those two theater actress did it once upon a story telling time in Fully Booked. Using different voices, moving all around the place, using props, and engaging the kids - interacting with them, asking them, encouraging them to talk to the other character as the story goes along.
Props needed:
- Scarf - When I put it on, it means it's story time and they have to listen
- Flashlight / Mobile Phone - Turn off light as God didn't create the world yet so it was dark. Then turn on flashlight/mobile phone when He said, "let there be light" and turn on light.
- Blue cloth - Wave it high to signify the sky for Day 2 (the scarf may be used too, as the sky)
- Brown cloth - Spread it and step on it when God formed the land, all the rest of the floor not covered is the sea
- Plush toy shaped like moon, star, sun - I only have the star, so will probably just cut out the moon and the sun
For a kid friendly version of the Creation Story, you may want to look here.
Social, Digital, Oriental
As they learn that God created man, including all of us, will proceed to show them a selection of photos of different people wearing their traditional costume. This may point out that there are different races around the world and we are all unique and equal.
Will be going to flickr for this.
Practical
As creations of God, we are in charge of all the world. How do we best take care of all of His creations?
Booklet of good habits - will fold three papers into half, to make a 6-pager booklet. The first paper I will use a colored paper to serve as cover. Will give them each a sheet of paper with printouts of kids doing the following:
