The lesson “Jesus Loves Children” uses the book of Matthew to teach the children about how Jesus loves children. Together, the children will recite Matthew 19:14 and each child will state one reason why Jesus loves him or her, and all children. Each child will also share what they imagine it would be like to climb into the lap of Jesus. 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 40th lesson in the 1st Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Jesus, Our Savior” unit.
