Safari :: Week of November 9

WE’RE LEARNING… I can thank God for everything.
MEMORY VERSE: “Always give thanks to God.” Ephesians 5:20 (NCV)
BIBLE STORY: Ten Lepers I Esther 1-10

During the worship experience this weekend, we sang a song to remind us that we can thank God for everything. Sing the song with your toddler at home!

If You’re Thankful and You Know It (to the tune, “If You’re Happy and You Know It”)

If you’re thankful and you know it, clap your hands! (clap, clap)
If you’re thankful and you know it, clap your hands! (clap, clap)
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Giving thanks will surely show it.
If you’re thankful and you know it, clap your hands! (clap, clap)

If you’re thankful and you know it, stomp your feet! (stomp, stomp)
If you’re thankful and you know it, stomp your feet! (stomp, stomp)
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Giving thanks will surely show it.
If you’re thankful and you know it, stomp your feet! (stomp, stomp)

If you’re thankful and you know it, shout “Hooray!” (“Hooray!”)

If you’re thankful and you know it, shout “Hooray!” (“Hooray!”)
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Giving thanks will surely show it.
If you’re thankful and you know it, shout “Hooray!” (“Hooray!”)

You can also put all three together for a fourth verse. (clap, clap, stomp, stomp, “Hooray!”)

Repeat a few times, or as long as your toddler is interested. Say, “Great job! Who can thank God for everything?” Encourage your toddler to say, “I can thank God for everything!”
