Go Everywhere Buddies



This is an easy craft for preschoolers
to help remind them that 
God is always with us,
even though we can't see Him.

They can make a 
"Go Everywhere Buddy"
that they CAN see
and when you take your buddy with you,
talk about the God that you can't see!






You have several options to make this "buddy" with whatever
materials you may have. 
You need a wooden spoon, and beyond that,
it's whatever you have to decorate it.
Googly eyes, pompoms, markers, tape or glue
and construction paper or fabric scraps.


Make a face for your buddy.
You can draw all the features with markers
Or you can use googly eyes.
For hair you can use pompoms or yarn.


If you use construction paper, cut out pants
and a shirt.  You can use double-stick tape,
or glue to stick on paper clothes.
Or, if you want fancy clothes,
use fabric scraps to wrap around
your buddy and glue together in the back.


Your child can decorate the clothes
before you glue them on.


Now, as you take your buddy 
everywhere 
you go,
you can tell him, and everyone else,
 "God is always with us, too!"
