Daniel and the lions continued (day 29)

Another activity to review the story of Daniel and the lions is to make a puppet out of a paper plate, yarn, and a pencil. Use the photo and be creative. Then, let the kiddos act out the story using the lion puppet. They can even get behind the couch and put on a puppet show.

the point? God tells up to pray only to him

Daniel and the scary sleepover (day28)

On page 152 Sally Lloyd-Jones tells the story of Daniel and the Lion's Den from Daniel 6. We did two activities today because Alyse and Von did not agree on their preference. They both ended up enjoying both the activities. First we took some play-dough and made "lion prints" using our fist and smashing it into the dough. Then we went outside to play chase. We took turns being Daniel while the others were the lions chasing him. However, when the lions caught Daniel, God had closed their mouths and they could only tickle Daniel. We talked about why the lions didn't eat Daniel and how God's name was made great through this situation.

the point? God protects his people
