Silly Straw Fun




 Gather a silly straw, felt, and scissors.  



Cut the felt into circles and then make a small hole in the middle of each one.


One at a time, have the felt circles “follow” one another onto the straw until they’ve reached the bottom.     







There were twelve disciples that followed Jesus. They tried to be like Him by loving and helping others. We can follow Jesus too!




Pom-Pom Heart






Gather a piece of construction paper, scissors, pom-poms, a marker, and glue.   



Draw a heart on the paper and cut it out.


Make a line of glue all around the edge of the heart.


Place pom-poms on the glue.    



The most important thing we can do is love others like Jesus does. When we follow Jesus, we can love everyone!


Little People Water Play



Gather a bin of water, Little People figures, and a washcloth. 



Play with the Little People figures in the water pretending to baptize.





 Dry them off with the washcloth! 



Jesus wanted John to baptize him, and John did because he knew 
Jesus is special! Just like John followed Jesus, we can follow Jesus too.

L.O.V.E. Spells LOVE



Gather some type of alphabet cookie or cracker, like these, and a bowl.


 Place the cookies in a bowl.


Look for the letters L, O, V, and E to spell love. Then do it again!



 Jesus loves everyone and we can love others too. We can love like Jesus!   




Heart Brownies



 Gather brownie mix, a heart-shaped cookie cutter, icing, and sprinkles.


Bake the brownies and then use the cookie cutter to create heart shapes.


Decorate the hearts with icing and sprinkles, then deliver some to a friend!  




There was a woman who was sad because she didn’t have any friends. But when she was brought to Jesus, He loved her and wanted to be her friend! Jesus wants to be everyone’s friend.
