After Pentecost 7B: Ideas to help the 3’s and under connect with this Sunday’s RCL

Hi I’m back, this is a little late but then it is here, unlike the glitch that left you without this page over the last month.

It might be handy to prepare a special “Sunday bag” in advance with everything ready for Sunday Morning.

You may need to prepare in advance

The new season of https://store.illustratedchildrensministry.com/collections/coloring-sheets-posters/products/bible-story-coloring-pages-summer-2018 Will get you 14 colouring in pages, that is 14 Sundays worth and I will  refer to them over the coming weeks. To reduce the cost further, you could share with other families or ask your church to purchase them for you. Note this is a USA publication so the season  for them is Summer, and the price is in US$, so it will cost a little more and possible attract international transaction charges depending on whom your credit card is with)

MAKE: a crown, use paper or crepe paper, pre cut a crown shape, and let your child add “the jewels” by drawing or sticking shapes on the crown. (Note for this age, sticky “jewels” as can be found in $2 shops and the like, might prove a chocking hazard)

PRAY: A King needs more than a crown (point to the crown you made. possibly on your head)

He needs God to guide him.

Amen

I have used Him as we are talking about David, but if you would prefer this prayer could easily have Queen and Her/she substituted for King and Him/HE
