Seeds of Faith Craft and Bible Verse Review Learning Activity
This craft can be used as a review game or as a tool to help your children stay in God's word.
Children color a seed packet in class and place the seed shapes with either words from the Bible verse written on them or Bible verses that will help them grow in their faith.
The back of the seed packet says:
"These "seeds of faith" will help you grow, through God's power, a lovely child of God who will produce abundant fruit of God's glory.
When to plant: Effective in all zones. Plant anytime of the year.
How to Plant: Start seeds indoors or outdoors anytime of the day or year. The earlier the better! Plant new seeds daily to insure a continuous crop of the Fruit of the Spirit. Fertilize with lots of love and understanding.

2. Cut out a stem from green card stock, 9" x 3/4" wide for each child.
3. In class show the children how to insert the stems in the cards so that the flower can be moved up and down to look like it is growing. Provide construction paper, glue, and tape so they can design their own flowers. If you have young children precut some flower shapes for the children who have a hard time cutting.
*My second graders did this craft. I thought they might think it was too babyish, but they all seemed to enjoy it. Also, to save paper I used my bag of left over paper scraps from previous craft projects.
I used the "Growing in God's Love" craft with my 3-5 year old Sunday School class this morning. I pre-made the craft, and just had flowers from which the children could choose. They glued on their flowers using glue sticks. My 7 year old daughter, Kerry, had a great idea for an addition to the craft. We made leaves to attach to the stem. One leaf was attached to the stem so that it was just above the words "Growing in God's love." On the leaf, we wrote the words, "Who is...(Growing in God's love?)." On the paper above the words, we wrote "____ is..." When the stem was pulled upwards, the words then read, "____ is growing in God's love." We also cut a little larger heart out of card stock and glued the pattern heart onto the card stock heart. It was a beautiful. I used it in conjunction with a creation lesson, "God made us and we belong to God." The children loved it, and their parents were very impressed, too! Thanks,Rita

"Plant Seeds of Faith" Plant Stake Craft
Children make plant stakes to remind them to plant God's words in their hearts. They glue leaf and ladybug shapes on craft sticks and then write "Plant Seeds of Faith!" on the plant stakes. You can also have them plant flower seeds in a cup and then place their plant stakes in the dirt in the cup.'
