INSTRUCTIONS/IDEAS

Materials: 3x5 flashcards, hole punch, ribbon, coloring materials

  • The servant may provide the kids with flashcards and color pencils. With each card they should draw one day of creation.
  • As they continue to have all the days of creation, you may hole punch the corner of the card, put a ribbon through them, and create a booklet out of the cards.
  • Make sure they put each card in the correct order so they can use it as a reminder if they forget.

Review the memory verse from the Creation story: "In the beginning, God made Heaven and earth." Genesis 1:1

Also review the differences between the Old and New Testaments. As the children are working on their flashcards, play the song of the Old Testament books in the background.

  • Old Testament Books Song (Missing Deuterocanonical books: Tobit and Judith from history books, Wisdom and Sirach from poetic books, Baruch, 1&2 Maccabees from prophetic books, and the Prayer of Manasseh)
