We’re Learning… God gave us Jesus.
Bible Story: Baby Jesus Is Born ● Luke 2:1-7

As a family, read “Baby Jesus Is Born” — Luke 2:1-7 from a children’s Bible. (CLICK HERE for children’s Bible recommendations.) 

After reading the Bible story, complete the activity together:

Memory Verse Activity:

Activity Supplies: Safari Playlist

• Before the activity, practice saying the memory verse and doing the motions a few times.
• Play the Safari playlist and have a dance party to help your toddler remember the memory verse.
• After about 30 seconds, pause the music and encourage your toddler to stand very still or FREEZE.
• Lead them in saying the memory verse with these motions:
  
  “God has given (point up)
  a son (rock arms like you’re holding a baby)
  to us.” (thumbs to chest)
  Isaiah 9:6 (open hands like a book)

• After saying the verse, turn the music on again and repeat the activity every 30 seconds for as long as your toddler is interested.
• After the activity, say, “Great job! Who gave us Jesus?” Encourage your toddler to say, “God gave us Jesus!”
