Weekly Verse: Sing to God; tell all He has done. Psalm 105:2

Materials: Teaching Picture 2, Music, small plastic bottles with lids, small jingle bells, glue, stickers

  • Display the picture with the other materials.
  • Help a  preschooler put a few bells into a bottle. Monitor this carefully so children don’t put bells in their mouths.
  • Glue the lid and close it securely. Offer stickers for children to decorate the bottles.
  • Play a song and encourage the children to shake their bottles to the music.
  • Show the Teaching Picture and talk about Paul and Silas. Comment that the preschoolers are showing love to God by singing.

3–Pre-K— Draw to Music

Materials: Teaching Picture 2, Music, paper, markers or crayons

  • When a child has finished beading his sticks, the teacher can put another bead of hot glue around the end.
  • Show the Teaching Picture and talk about the Bible story as children work. Say that Paul and Silas showed love to God by singing and praying.
  • When everyone has finished their beads, play a few songs and encourage the children to play their sticks.
