God Made Me Special

Celebrate how wonderfully God made each of us with this hands-on activity! Children will trace and decorate their handprint, then fill each finger with words that describe who they are. This craft reinforces Psalm 139:14 and reminds kids that they are fearfully and wonderfully made, unique, loved, and created with purpose.
Let Your Light Shine
💡 Lantern Craft
This cheerful paper lantern helps children reflect on Matthew 5:16 and what it means to let their light shine for Jesus. As they cut, fold, and decorate, they'll be reminded that their light, no matter how small, can make a big difference when it points others to God’s love.
