The following is a listing of bible story activities that can be used to teach the Bible
story and truths to children in Christian Preschool and Children's Ministry
Sunday School classes.
Bible Story Activities.
 | Let the children draw the ark and the rainbow using colors or markers. |
| Signs of the
Promises. God placed a rainbow in the
sky as a reminder of the covenant He made with Noah. Ask the children
to make up signs which can remind them of some of God's other promises.
 | Example. The children can use something
associated with their favorite activity to remind them that God has
plans to prosper them and not to harm them, plans to give them hope and
a future (Jeremiah 29:11). |
| What the child picks as a sign is not
important. Children can each have different signs for the same
promise. But whenever the children see or think about whatever
they select as a sign, that sign can remind them of one of God's
Promises. |
| The children can make up a sign for one of God's
promises they may have memorized. Or they can choose a promise
from this list of some of God's promises. |
|
| The Promise
Maker. A person's promises
reflect his or her character. Help the children learn about God and His
character by studying some of the promises He has made to us. |
| Use Bible Drills
to reinforce a topic from the story.
| If the class is younger, ask the class to find a single verse.
You can read it aloud after everyone finds the verse. |
| If the class is older, give each student a different verse to find.
Let each student read their verse aloud. |
| Help the children realize that God blesses many people by finding
these verses which describe People Blessed By
God. |
| Help the children realize that God has made many promises we can count
on by finding these verses which describe some of God's
Promises. |
|
People of the Bible.
