Preschool: Love God

January 10th, 2010

January 10, 2009

This morning we learned about the 2 most important things.  Jesus said that the most important this is to LOVE GOD.  He said, the second more important thing is to LOVE OTHERS.  This month our key question and answer are:  How can I show love to God?  I can love God like Jesus did.

To help us remember our story, we drew pictures of people we love, we played a game jumping on hearts, and we made a yummy strawberry jelly heart-shaped sandwich for treats.

Parents, During our talk time, we named people that we can show love to this week.  We talked about how important it is to show love for people even when it’s hard.  This week continue this conversation at bedtime.  Remind your child of times you saw them show love for others throughout the day.  Ask them if there were times they didn’t show love to others?  Be sure to give your child lots of praise for the ways they have obeyed God, while challenging them to always try to improve.  Be sure to say, “I am so proud of you for showing love to others and God is proud too.”

Our memory verse this month is “Love (cross hands over heart) God (point up) with all your heart.” (draw a heart with your fingers over your heart).  Matthew 22:37  (hold hands open like a  Bible)
