Miracles Sunday School Crafts and Activities

Sunday School Lessons, Crafts, and Activity Ideas about the Miracles of Jesus

 

Miracles - Jesus Heals the Blind Man

 

What you will need: Paper, Colored Pencils or Crayons, Scissors, Clear Packaging Tape (Wide Tape), Chocolate Pudding

Children color, cut, and fold this interactive craft to help them remember how Jesus healed the blind man in John 9.

Younger children will have fun adding “mud” with brown paint or pudding.

They open the craft to reveal that the blind man can see! Conversation bubbles inside give children a place to write what the man said after Jesus healed him. Great for Sunday school, children’s church, homeschool, and VBS.

1. Before class print out the shape patterns onto card stock (Heavy Paper) or collect the items listed. Place each shape or item in a bag.

2. In class have your children take turns trying to discover what shape or object is in the bag, and what it might represent relating to spiritual sight.

3. Give a bag to a child and tell him to reach into the bag and try to feel the object or paper shape that is in the bag and guess what it might be. If the child can't guess, have him give it to the next child to try.

4. After a child has guessed correctly read what is on the shape or explain how each item relates to spiritual sight.

Lamb - "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" John 1:29. When we recognize that Jesus is the lamb of God we gain spiritual sight.

Crown - "Jesus is King of Kings and Lord or Lords" Revelations 19:16. When we recognize who Jesus is we gain spiritual sight.

Bible - "Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ." Romans 10:17. When we read God's words and believe we receive spiritual sight.

Cross - "Jesus gave his life for you on the cross so you live in righteousness." 1 Peter 2:24. When we understand how Jesus died for our sins and ask for forgiveness we gain spiritual sight.

Heart - God loves you. He sent his own son to die for you so you might have eternal
life. - John 3:16. When we realize how much God loves us we gain spiritual sight.

Candle - "Jesus said, 'I am the light of the world.'" John 9:5. When we recognize Jesus as the light of the world we gain spiritual sight and no longer live in darkness.

Before class print out the eyes and heart pictures and cut them out. You can also glue them to craft sticks. Make a set for each child.

Member's

In class tell your children that you are going to tell them part of the story and they should put up either the eye for physical blindness or the heart representing spiritual blindness for each thing you say.

Example:

1. The blind man that Jesus and his disciples passed as they walked. The children should put up both the eyes and heart since the blind man was both spiritually and physically blind.

Talk About First Aid Supplies

Bring in a variety of supplies from a typical first aid box, Band-Aids, gauze, aspirin, etc. Let the children discuss them; what they are used for, etc. Then talk about how Jesus can help you feel better when you are sick or hurt. Discuss how Jesus wants us to be well, not sick, just like our parents. Use this to start discussing the healing miracles Jesus did.

 

 

Blind Man

Blindfold them and lead around the room. Have them try to touch their toes, scratch their nose, tie their shoes, etc. with the blindfold on. Then take them off and do same activities.

 

 

Jesus Healing the Sick

Have the children lay down like they are sick in bed. One teacher comes in, kneels beside each child and recites the words Jesus healed Jairus' daughter. They can do this for each other, and help each other up off the floor.

 

 

Bandage Relay

For primary ages, do a "bandage relay". Two teams, have them try to wrap or unwrap each other from gauze wrap, ace bandages, etc. Or give them each a stack of Band-Aids and have them unwrap and stick them on each other in a certain amount of time.

 

 

Play a Memory Game

For primary ages, take a tray of first aid supplies and let them look at it for one minute. Remove several objects and have them try to tell what is missing.
