We’re Learning… I can obey God.
Bible Story: Noah’s Ark ● Genesis 6-9

As a family, read “Noah’s Ark” (Genesis 6-9) from a children’s Bible. (CLICK HERE for children’s Bible recommendations.) 

After reading the Bible story, complete the activity together.

• Say, “Let’s do an activity to help us remember we can obey God!”

  “Happy are those (point to smile)
  who obey the LORD.” (point up)
