This week, in our journey through The Jesus Storybook Bible, we read the story of the wise men searching for Jesus. Our first activity was making a star. I found a tutorial on Pinterest for making
glue stars. Like I've mentioned before, Lucy loves squeeze glue, so I knew this would be a hit. She's also a big fan of glitter. I am not, but I make exceptions every once in a while. Haha. My trick for maintaining the glitter was to put a sheet of wax paper on the bottom of a rimmed cookie sheet. That way the glitter is somewhat contained in the cookie sheet, and the wax paper prevents glitter from sticking to the sheet itself. Our glue star took 2 full days to dry, but has been sticking nicely to the window ever since:
While we had the glitter out, we made crowns for the wise men.
We also did a couple different
egg hunts this week (for sight words and letter sounds) and a
shape search, so I reiterated how the wise men
searched for Jesus. :-)
Our verse for the week is "God loved us and sent his son." (Parts of 1 John 4:10) This is Lucy's Cubbies verse for the week. I decided I wasn't going to push her to learn two separate verses each week, so we might just stick with the Cubbies verses for now.
