Painting with Mud

Gather a piece of paper, a small cup, and a paintbrush.

Go outside and scoop some dirt into your cup.

Jesus used mud to make a man who was blind able to see! Jesus is amazing!

Place some paint on the plate with celery sticks as paintbrushes.

Draw an outline of a fish on the paper.

Have your child paint scales onto the fish using the celery sticks and paint.

Fishermen had been fishing all night long and didn’t catch any fish. But, guess what? Jesus got in their boat and told them to cast their nets again. Their nets filled with SO many fish that the nets almost broke! Jesus is AMAZING!

Boat Snack

Gather a paper plate, sliced apples, sliced cheese, and toothpicks.

Tear the cheese into a small square and slide onto a toothpick for the sail.

Stick the toothpick into the apple slice to create a boat!

Jesus and His friends were on a boat when it started to storm. Jesus told the storm to stop, and it did! Wow! Jesus is amazing!
