Kids Activity Ideas
SHOE STRINGS:
Give each child a pair or shoestrings and colourful thin permanent markers. Encourage children to write in small letters the words from today’s lesson that will continue to encourage them each day and will comfort them when they struggle and need guidance. If children don’t use shoestrings for their shoes, they can be used as a necklace to remember today’s lesson.
THANK YOU NOTES:
Children can be given construction paper and markers, stickers, glitter, etc to make a folded THANK YOU note to our Father for sending the Holy Spirit to be our comfort and our guide.. Stand the Thank You Notes on the classroom table and read them as the final prayer as children prepare to leave the class.
