Ask your child what some of their favorite stories are. Tell your child that one of your favorite stories is in the bible. Then help your child to find page 26 and read the story to them about Jesus welcoming and blessing the children. When finished ask them how the story made them feel. Before having your child draw their picture, play some joyful but reflective music for them and have them close their eyes. Then have them imagine themselves in the story. Read the story again slowly. This time, stop reading after the line that tells the children that Jesus wants to bless them. Finally, have your child complete their drawing. *
