The children will count the disciples together and identify some of the things each of them did in the Bible stories. Each child will name one or more ways he or she can be a Godly friend or person, just as the disciples were. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 3-5 years, and is the 29th lesson in the 1st Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “New Testament” unit.
