Lesson 5 - "Lie Detectors"

Lie Detectors Watchdog Bible Lesson from www.daniellesplace.com

 

Through this lesson children learn that good watchdogs are good detectors. They can detect noises and smells much better than humans and warn them when danger is near. We need to be good "lie detectors". Lies can sometimes be hard to detect because they come in so many forms such as white lies, exaggeration, breaking a promise, leaving out some of the facts, flattery, etc.

Children practice detecting lies by playing "Detect a Lie" Game. They receive an official "Watchdog Lie Detective" badge when they have completed the game.
