Daniel in the Lions' Den


Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, Daniel in the lions' den!

We had so much fun with this lesson! Even though the kids mostly were already familiar with the story, we started by reading through it in the kids' storybook Bible.

Then we had 3 activity options:

Make It: I got this idea from Flame Creative Kids: protection pictures! We marked a symbol- a letter or a simple picture- with tape on a paper plate. Then we colored over the entire plate with crayons. After we peeled off the tape, we found that the symbol we'd made had been protected - just like Daniel was protected by God!



Play It: This was one of our best games yet! We had one "lion," who got a soccer ball. The rest of us were trying to protect our own Daniel: a tennis ball balanced on top of an upside-down cup. The lion tried to bump Daniel off the cup, while the kids tried to protect him!




Build It: We built dens for the lions out of foam blocks.
