Watch it Grow
Featured
Plant a small plant together in your yard or buy a new plant for your home. (Alternatively, watch a time-lapse video of a plant growing.) Talk about how plants start as seeds and grow into mature plants. What do plants need to grow and be healthy? What do we need to grow into the mature believer God requires us to be?
Find
This week’s verse is in the book of Matthew. Help your child find the book of Matthew. Is this book in the Old or New Testament? How many chapters are there?
Missing the Mark
Draw a bull’s-eye on a piece of paper and lay it on the floor. (Alternately use chalk to draw a bull’s-eye on the sidewalk.) Using a small rock, a ball or a wadded-up piece of paper, take turns trying to hit the middle of the bull’s-eye. Talk about how it would be impossible to hit the center of the target every time. Sin is when we don’t hit the mark of God’s perfection. We can do it some of the time, but not all of the time.
