Family Activity: Big and Small

WHAT YOU NEED: activity page, crayons or markers

WHAT YOU DO:

• Before the Activity: Print off the activity page and give it to your child.
• During the Activity: Encourage your child to circle all the small things on their activity page. Then have them color the big things on their page.

WHAT YOU SAY:

• During the Activity: “I see some big and small things on your page! Draw a circle around all the small things. What do you see on the page that’s SMALL? (Pause.) Great! Now what do you see on the page that’s BIG? (Pause.) Color all the BIG things.”
• During the Activity: “Our stuffed animal is hiding. You can open your eyes and search for it!” (Do activity.)
• After the Activity: “You did a great job finding the small and big things. David was small compared to the big giant Goliath. But Goliath’s size didn’t matter, because God was with David, and He made David to do big things. You can do big things, too, when you remember God is with you! Who made you to do big things?” (God made me to do big things.)
