Creation Craft -
I used the Gingerbread man/person recipe and told the story of God making Adam. I found this was great fun and also encouraged the children to talk about their differences.
Creation Dice
On a standard sheet of construction paper (we used light blue paper) we gave the children cut outs of tree trunks (brown), and green tree tops. The children glued 2-3 "trees" on their pages. Then each child was given a bottle of glue and a small bowl of "Trix" cereal. (Trix cereal is made of many different colors of fun fruit shapes) We encouraged the children to glue lots of "fruit" on their trees. The children were then given green markers to "scribble" grass under the trees. At the top of each page the children glued pre-printed strips of paper that had the following verse "And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, ... and the fruit tree yielding fruit...And God saw that it was Good" Genesis 1:11 & 12.  (Idea by Vicki)

The World is So Big



Brain Teaser (Genesis 1:1)
Choose an object in the room. Describe it to the children, begin your description with "I spy something that is..." When a child correctly guesses what you're describing, have all the children say, "Thank you Heavenly Father for making ____."
Creation Matching Game
Crossword Puzzle
I took a small, soft ball and we all sat in a circle on the floor and passed the ball around the circle. When each child got the ball they had to say one thing that Heavenly Father created. The children came up with some really great things. The 3-year-olds said more things that we had just talked about in our lesson, but the 4-year-olds really soared with this. They said all sort of things and when it came time to color out pictures of things Heavenly Father had made no one wanted to. They wanted to keep playing the game. They did not get out of control either. They all did really well with this. (Idea by Candie)

The Creation (Suitable for Young Children)



Awakening, March 1982, New Era
Simple Pleasures, November 1995, New Era



Carefully take apart an Oreo cookie. The side without any filling is before Heavenly Father created light.  The filling is the light Heavenly Father created. 
Display a beautifully wrapped package/gift.  Explain that if we wanted to give it to someone we "could" just put it in a plain box or bag.  We could even hand it to them completely unwrapped.  However, if we really wanted to show someone how much we loved them, we could carefully wrap it with beautiful paper and pretty bows.  This shows how much thought, time and effort went into preparing their gift.  Heavenly Father could have prepared a world without beauty, but just like the gift, he wanted to put in the time and effort to show us he loves us.
