Rain clouds
Together make clouds and rain. Fill clear jars with water to about 5cm from the top. Spray a layer of shaving cream on the top of the water in each jar. This is the cloud. Show the children how to squirt a few drops of food colouring onto the shaving cream cloud. The food colouring will slowly start to rain from the cloud. Talk together about the clouds and the rain that God makes.
Who made these?
Roll out a large roll of paper and place around it star-shaped cookie cutters, plastic toy animals, circle cutters, small sponges, play people and plates of paint in different colours. Encourage the children to print shapes and footprints all over the paper. As you do, ask the children ‘Who made all of these things?’
A prayer for very young children: Look outside
With the group, stand near a window and look outside.
Ask the children to shout out the things they can see that God made. Pray:
God, we know that you are the creator
and you made all these things.
Amen.
