1. Creation

Sermon

Let’s see what is in today’s treasure chest! Who wants to know? Remember we only open the treasure chest when everyone is sitting down quietly. Now let’s open the chest!

Take out a small globe. Today we are learning about how God made the world!  

Let’s all cover our eyes – that’s what the world looked like before God created it – it was just dark.

Now open your eyes – God made light! 

Take a spray bottle out of the treasure chest, and gently spray the kids – Then God made water. Who knows where the water is found? … that’s right – in the sea and rivers. 

Take some seeds, wood and bark out of the treasure chest. Pass them around and let the kids feel them. God made all the beautiful plants and seeds in the world, so that we’d have shade and food. Isn’t he amazing?

Take some toy animals, fish and birds out of the treasure box and pass them around. Let the kids make the noises that they make. 

Look at all the beautiful creatures that God made for us!

Pull out a person figurine. God made humans, and he made you. Point to the different parts of the person – God made our eyes, ears, nose etc. Pray for the kids and thank God for their uniqueness, colour eyes, hair, their personalities, gifts etc.
