We are still learning about the amazing world God made! Who made everything? God made everything!
Last week we learned that on day 6, God made animals. On day 6, God also made people. The first 2 people that God made were Adam and Eve! We celebrated that God made us today! God made each of us different. He made some with blue eyes, and some with brown or green eyes. He made some of us with black hair, and some with blonde, or red, or brown! He made each of us special!
We colored people pictures to look like us.
And we made a fun snack that looked like a person out of pretzel sticks, cheese cubes and marshamallows.
We are getting really good at saying our memory verse. Keep practicing. “God made the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1
Parents: This week celebrate our lesson, God made people, by pulling out photo albums and looking at the pictures with your child. Thank God for all the people you know. God made everyone of them!

Today we learned about day 6! God made animals! It’s very exciting to learn about the animals that God made! He made so many different kinds and they are all wonderful! Next Sunday, we will learn what else God made on day 6!
Who made everything? GOD made everything!!!
During GreenHouse, we sang a song called Thank You Lord for Making Me! During the song we pretend to be monkeys, gators, and bears! Oh my!
In our classrooms we made cool animal puppets!
During our talk time, we each had an opportunity to name our favorite animal that God made! There were so many different answers: turtles, puppy dogs, lions, elephants, monkeys, lizards, alligators, horses….and on and on!
PARENTS: We have a special project for you this week. Get out a piece of paper and as a family list some of the different animals that God made. Keep the list on the fridge and all week add to it as you think of more. Next Sunday bring the list to church or mail it in, and your family will receive a special prize! I’m guessing our lists will get pretty long because our God is so creative and he made so many different kinds of animals!
Our memory verse is Genesis 1:1: “God made the heavens and the earth.”

Who made everything? God made everything!!!
We are still learning about creation! This week we learned about day 5: God made fish and birds. Wehad a lot of fun in our classrooms and in GreenHouse!
In our rooms, we played a fishing game, and got to catch fish with our Bible verse on it.
We also made a bird and gave it soft, fluffy feathers, played a matching game and swam around the room like fish!
During GreenHouse, we reviewed what we’ve learned so far by playing our game. Our kids are really smart!
Remember our memory verse: “God (point up) created (pat hands together as if forming a ball) the heavens (spread hands out above head) and the earth (circle hands together).” Genesis 1:1 (hold hands out in front of body like your holding a book)
PARENTS: Now that the weather has turned cold, take your kids on an inside tripto a local pet store. Look at the aquariums full of fish and the birds in their cages. Try to name all the colors you see on these beautifulanimals God made.Be sure to thank God formaking birds and fish on day 5!

We had our second lesson on the creation story! Who made everything? God made everything!
Today, we learned about day3 and day4 of creation at GreenHouse! Each week, the kids get to play a game where they try to remember what God made on the days we’ve already learned about. They are doing a great job remembering! Parents, remember to use your child’s creation book to review at home.
Our NOW team came to lead worship and it was a lot of fun showing God how much we love Him!
On day 3, God made the land, plants and sea.During our class time we made leaf prints, decorated pumpkins, and hadcarrots and dip for snack- all to celebrate the wonderfulplants that God made on day 3! During our talk time we named some of our favorite fruits and vegetables!
On day 4, God made the sun, moon and stars.God made daytime and nighttime. We played a fun game called “Far Out” where we pretended to be twinkle stars!
Memory Verse: “God (point up) created (pat hands together as if forming a ball) the heavens (spread hands out above head) and the earth (circle hands together).” Genesis 1:1 (hold hands out in front of body like your holding a book)
Moms and Dads, this week there are 2 great opportunities to reinforce day 3 and day 4 at home! During dinner time, let your kids guess which things on their plate come from plants. Then thank God for each fruit and vetetablethey name. At bedtime, look out the window at the stars and the moon. Thank God for creating nighttime on day 4 so that our bodies have an opportunity to rest. Consistently thanking God for the small things will help your child devlop an attitude of gratitude.

We began learning all about CREATION this morning. Who made everything? God made everything!
Memory Verse: “God (point up) created (pat hands together as if forming a ball) the heavens (spread hands out above head) and the earth (circle hands together).” Genesis 1:1 (hold hands out in front of body like your holding a book)
Today we learned about day 1 and day 2 of creation. On day 1, God made light and dark. On day 2, God made the sky and the water. We had some fun activities today to help us remember our story. We playedsome games called sink or float, the blindfold challenge &cloud hop and had a yummy snack that reminded us of the sky (blue jello with whip cream for clouds!)
We’ll be learning about creation for the next 6 weeks! We created a special book for this series and are asking all parents to use the book at home to reinforce what we are learning at church through the end of November! If your child did not bring home a creation activity book this morning, be sure to pick one up at the counter next Sunday.
PARENT CONNECTION: This week, use bath time to reinforce day 2 of the creation story. You can play games during bath time with objects around the house. Let kids guess whether items will float or sink, and then try it out to see if they are correct (try items like a sponge, piece of paper, leaf, plastic container, apple, clothespin, rock). Or have a conversation about their favorite things to do in the water.Be sure to thank God for giving us water.
