God Made Me Bible Lesson 7

Lesson 7 - My Happy Heart

 

God created us to do good things. He made us to glorify him and he wants us to have a happy heart. We can be happy when we make God our Lord, obey him, pray, and give thanks. (A complete lesson is available to members only on The Resource Room.)

 

Children color the picture and glue the words in the correct box. They can also glue on a felt heart or happy face sticker over the heart in the picture.

2. If you have younger children, glue the heart pattern onto a piece of construction paper and let them glue fun foam shapes on the background.

3. If you have older children, they may want to make a 3D picture. Have them cut on the heart shape starting at the bottom of the page. When they have cut out the whole heart shape, turn the page over and tape the bottom cut edge closed. Then glue the page onto a piece of construction paper around the edges. Do not glue the heart shape down.

4. Glue little squares or rolled up paper to the back of the heart in the middle of the picture and to the construction paper behind it so that the middle heart stands about a half an inch above the construction paper background.

 

Play like "Pin the Tail on the Donkey". Use the patterns provided. (To view the complete lesson on The Resource Room and print out the patterns click on the link to this lesson above.)

 

 

Print out heart shapes onto red card stock (Heavy Paper) and cut them out. Have your children draw a happy face on one side. Have them think of one thing they can be thankful for and write it on the other side of the heart. Roll up a piece of tape and tape it to the back of the hearts and to the children's clothes. Or punch holes in the hearts and tie a string on so they can wear them as necklaces.

Drawing

After talking about idioms (From the "Fun With Letters and Words" section) have your children pick one of the idioms and draw a picture using the literal meaning and the implied meaning of the idiom. For example, if the child picks "broken hearted", he may draw a picture of a heart broken into many pieces and a picture of someone very sad.
