Christian Mothers Day Craft

Christian Mothers Day craft ideas for children can be made during Sunday school as a wonderful keepsake gift!

The Bible is clear, each child is to follow and obey the teachings of both their father and mother. Since each Mother is the comforter of the family, she is the person a child will usually run to first for love and comfort if they are hurt.

Every mom will love and appreciate one of the Christian Mother’s Day craft ideas featured here which children can make during Sunday school and Bible school time.

As a mother, I have saved all the cards my son made for me on Mother’s Day and all the crafts he made throughout the years.

In addition, this page offers additional Women of the Bible ideas for kids.

Make a special foam Scripture quote, picture frame craft during Sunday school or Bible school for that special mom! Have each child trace an outline of their hand on the foam piece and cut it out to create the backdrop for the photo frame.

The Bible verse on the craft is simple and reads:
Let the children come to me.
Matthew 19:13-14.

Sunday School Awards

Leave a reply

Christian prizes for Sunday school awards are a fun way to reward and motivate children. If you are looking for Sunday school award and reward ideas, this page will give you so many ideas.

Christian rewards are great for Sunday school children. Children will enjoy an award when they achieve memorizing a Bible verses.

Some of my favorite religious prizes are Christian school supplies like: crayons, erasers, stickers, stationery items, pens, and pencils.

Since children love toys and you prefer a prize that is not a toy, consider giving a Christian activity book, baseball cap, drawstring bag, game, as well as, a novelty jewelry cross necklace.

Depending on the church budget, teachers can gift children stickers, novelty toys, as well as, additional small gifts for children,

Also, Sunday school awards and prizes can be used as birthday gifts.

Passover Ideas

When you discover the Passover celebration with your Sunday school children, study the Old Testament story and Moses and Exodus and make a connection with these Passover ideas for kids.

Remind children about the Old Testament Bible stories about Moses the 10 plagues set down from God, to the land of Egypt where His people were slaves.

Children might not be comfortable the last horrible plague where the first-born son in Egypt will be killed when the “angel of death” passes by.

But, remind children that God had a plan, and told Moses to have the Hebrew people put the blood of a lamb over their door and the angel of death would “pass over” their home.
