The lesson “Jesus and the Children” teaches children about the love Jesus and God have for children. The children will state some of the questions the disciples asked Jesus about heaven and eternal life. The children will express how Jesus answered and what he said people must be like to enter the kingdom of heaven: little children. Each child will recite Matthew 18:5. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 43rd lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “God Sends a Savior” unit.
