6 Days of Creation Posters

This year I volunteered to help decorate the room the girls attend at Sabbath School. I'm not quite sure why I did that at such a busy time in my life, but it was fun!

The theme for this quarter is creation. I've finally finished the last of six posters I've been making depicting the six days of creation. All but the last one are already up on the wall at the Beginners Sabbath School at church. I drew all the outlines freehand, and I'm not a brilliant artist but was quite pleased with the results.

Here they are ...

I'll try to post a picture of them all on the wall (and the rest of the room decor) sometime soon.

Crafty Moses

Here is a photo of the craft I invented for the kids in Beginners Sabbath School a couple of weeks ago. I thought it made a nice change from the colouring-in sheets we are given to use.

I pre-cut squares of blue card, and green tissue paper for the reeds. I started off with a paper cupcake wrapper for the basket, but it collapsed too easily, which is why I ended up cutting up an egg carton instead. That worked really well.

There is a paper cupcake wrapper glued inside the carton (to bridge the gaps), and a cotton wool ball glued into that for the mattress. The little babies were easy to buy at the craft shop, and they and the scrap of material aren't attached, because the kids liked to take them out and cover them up again (repeatedly!).

The only problem is ... we are doing the story of Moses for a whole month! We did the colouring-in last week, so this week I'm trying to think of something different again. Any ideas?
