Weeping Jeremiah Stick Puppet Craft and Activity Sheet to Reinforce Bible Lessons on Jeremiah

Bring Jeremiah's message to life!

Based on Jeremiah 31:16-17, these activities help children learn that even during difficult times God offers comfort and hope. These easy-to-prepare printables help children explore how God encouraged Jeremiah during difficult times and reminded him that there is hope for the future.

Children color and assemble a reversible Jeremiah puppet with a sad face on one side and a hopeful face on the other.As they flip the puppet from the sad side to the hopeful side, they are reminded of God's promise to Jeremiah: "There is hope for your future."

How to use the puppets:

✔ As a craft - Have them add tears to the sad side of the puppet. As your children work on their puppets review the story and ask them what the signs Jeremiah is holding mean.

✔ Act out the story - Have your students use the puppets to act out the story as a review after the lesson.

✔ Lesson Prop - As you teach the lesson have your students hold up their puppets and turn them around when you talk about crying and hope.

✔ Bible Verse Review - Use them to review the Bible verse. Have your students show the crying side for the first part of the Bible verse, then turn it around for the second part.

Introduce your children to the prophet Jeremiah with this engaging coloring and activity sheet. Children color the picture, add tears to Jeremiah's sad face, and read Jeremiah 31:16-17. As they work, discuss what Jeremiah's message of hope means and how God can help us when we feel discouraged.
