UMBRELLA RELAY: Give children turns to take an umbrella while another child uses a squirt gun and tries to squirt each other. The umbrella can protect them from the water squirts for fun. This can also be done with two teams and have one team with some umbrellas while the other team squirts them and then switch sides!
UMBRELLA CHALK ART and WALKING: Give children large piece of chalk and allow to children to draw umbrellas on the parking lot or side walks. Then have children line up and run, skip, hop, or jump around all the umbrellas that were drawn. Then sit under some umbrellas on the grass or at a picnic table and tell today's Bible story and illustration.
FAITH MARKERS: Give children paper and crayons and a cut out cross for them to color in many colors. Then tell children to color the BLACK crayon over the top. Then give children a pencil or a toothpick to draw the letters FAITH and see the other colors show through the top black color. Tell children to use these book markers in their Bible or reading books at home to remind them to have FAITH in GOD and then to see HIS POWER in their lives.
UMBRELLA WALL-HANGING MOBILE: Have large umbrellas traced on card stock and let children cut them out and color them. Then hang the umbrellas on a wall and tape drops of rain paper cut outs under the umbrella with words from our lesson about faith and power and wisdom and healing, etc.
UMBRELLA BIBLE LESSON: Give each child a tracing of an umbrella for them to color and then trace or write their own words on the various colored sections of the umbrella with words from today's lesson - BELIEVE IN GOD'S POWER, or SHOW OUR FAITH BY OUR ACTIONS. Tape the umbrellas to the classroom door!
PRAYING HANDS: Let children trace each other's hands this time and then pass the praying hands to the right and let those children color the hands and write Matthew 21:22 - IF YOU BELIEVE, YOU WILL RECEIVE WHATEVER YOU ASK FOR IN PRAYER. Give children tape to tape the praying hands on their shirt or dress today.
SING A SONG: WHISPER A PRAYER IN THE MORNING; MY GOD IS SO BIG; HE IS ABLE
SNACK TIME: Give children a choc chip cookie or other type and ask if they have the FAITH to believe that there are good things to eat in that cookie? Ask them what FAITH does in their lives? FAITH IN ACTION!!
