Our Story

Today’s story is about how God created everything around us!

1. Day 1: God created light and separated it from darkness. (Show the light.)
2. Day 2: God made the sky. (Point to the sky picture.)
3. Day 3: God gathered water into seas and made dry land appear. He made plants and trees with fruits. (Touch the water, feel the fruit.)
4. Day 4: God created the sun, moon, and stars. (Show the pictures.)
5. Day 5: God made birds and fish. (Listen to bird sounds, splash the water.)
6. Day 6: God made animals and people! (Use stuffed animals, touch your face, smile!)
7. Day 7: God rested and made this day special. (Pretend to rest, close your eyes.)

God made everything! That’s the end of our story. Let’s listen to our song again and do our activity!
