Welcome to week 30!

This week your children learning about The Beatitudes.

Jesus went up on a mountainside and taught a great lesson to a crowd of people. The Sermon on the Mountain taught what kinds of attitudes God blesses.

 

In this Bible lesson, the children will learn the true happiness of following Jesus and to seek the righteousness of God. I hope you are blessed by this lesson.

If you haven’t read the introduction to Bible Time yet, I recommend you read the outline about the Bible lessons for children first.

Children's bible lesson about the beatitudes - Key Concepts

The key concepts that we focused on this week are:

  • True happiness is found in Jesus.

  • Good behavior is important to God.

  • We should have an attitude like Jesus.

You can also come up with your own key concepts.

Bible Verse for kids
The Bible verse for this lesson is Matthew 5:12

“Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven”.
This Bible verse should be simple enough for your toddler to memorize after a week of practice.

Bible Story Tips

  • We read “The Beatitudes” beginning on page 59 of the children's Bible Storybook called Bible-Time Stories and Rhymes.

  • During story, draw attention to the key concepts for this lesson.

  • Don't forget to ask questions related to the story, for example, “Whose attitude should be followed?”

  • Throughout the Bible lesson we reiterated that true happiness is found in Jesus.

  • After the Bible story and discussion session, we stand up and do the interactive rhyme found in the Bible storybook

 

Prayer
After the story and rhyme, we say a prayer that is related to the Bible story. You can either have your children repeat after you or allow them to come up with their own prayer.

"bee happy" Bible craft

Jesus wants us to be happy and shows us how we can be.

We made a Bible craft as a reminder to aim to be happy every day.  This children's craft can be made by cutting a flower shape out of cardstock or construction paper.

Then draw or cut out a bee and then glue it to the flower.

Finally, write, “Bee Happy” on the bee.
