Abraham’s Faith in Preschool Sabbath School Lessons

Starting Simple: Abraham’s Call

Abraham’s story begins with a simple call from God. Picture little Abraham playing in his sandbox, and suddenly a booming voice tells him to leave his toys behind and head to play in a new yard. For preschoolers, this sets the stage for understanding how God guides us.

Parents can chat with their kids about how taking new paths can be both scary and exciting. Start by playing ‘let’s pretend,’ sharing the excitement of being called to do something new. It’s like getting extra sprinkles on ice cream!

You might find that chats about even the everyday backyard strolls can turn into adventures. Encourage kids to think of other times they’ve been surprised by something new.

Abraham's

A Long Trip Adventure

Imagine packing up a wagon with favorite teddies and snacks, heading out just like Abraham did with his family. Long trips can be exhausting for preschoolers, so parents can relate by sharing personal family road trip stories: remember that time the GPS decided it knew better? Laugh about detours and share how, like Abraham, who trusted God’s guidance, your family trusted you not to end up in a supermarket parking lot!

Embracing the Journey

Talk about how it’s okay not to see the end right away; sometimes, the journey is the fun part.

Key Themes to Discuss:
  • Abraham’s Journey
  • Preschool Adventures
  • Family Road Trips
  • Trusting the Process

Don’t forget to share your own stories to connect with your little ones and emphasize the joy of the journey!

The Promised Joy of Isaac

Abraham’s promise to become a dad late in life makes for a wild story. Kids love stories about babies, especially unexpected ones! Encourage kids to think of waiting for their birthday or a fun event – it takes time, but it’s always worth it.

Compare Abraham waiting for Isaac to when cookies bake in the oven: aromatic but elusive till the timer dings. Discuss how patience can lead to joy and how Abraham trusted God’s plan, even if he didn’t understand it at first.

Kids might remember how tough waiting can be, but also how great the reward often turns out.

Laughing with Sarah

For preschoolers, Sarah’s laughter can be likened to when they can’t stop giggling over a funny bunny hopping in the wrong direction. Parents can talk about how sometimes, things seem too funny or impossible to be real – like a cake flying off a table or Grandma breakdancing!

Yet through Sarah’s story, they learn that surprises ahead aren’t just funny; they’re meaningful too. Ask your child what makes them giggle or share some family stories that had a surprising twist that ended well. This helps kids understand that laughter and surprises are a big part of life’s journey.

Discussion Points:

  • What makes your child laugh?
  • Share family stories with surprising twists.
  • Emphasize the importance of laughter in life’s journey.

The Big Test: Faith Unfolded

Abraham faced his biggest test, one which seems too hard for little ones to grasp. But think about borrowing a beloved teddy for a night – that’s distressing!

Parents can share times when they had to trust something dear would return safely. Relate faith and trust in this context, super puppet CEO style – ‘Mr. Stuffing will definitely be back tomorrow!’

This light-heartedness can ease the hefty story into a relatable life lesson on trusting God even without immediate answers, a concept surprisingly digestible even at a young age.

Lessons from a Small Heart

Through little hearts come big lessons. Parents can focus on how preschoolers can emulate Abraham’s faith by sharing and being kind, or through small, everyday acts of trust. Discuss something simple, like letting go of a parent’s hand to slide on their own at the playground – it’s both thrilling and a lesson in bravery packaged softly.

Use story times like these to build a biblical foundation with tangible lessons. Harness toys or playtime to reenact scenarios where trust pays off, nurturing faith naturally. Encourage their own tales of bravery and belief in nonsensical situations.

Engage, Enjoy, Educate

To keep the flame alive, it’s key to engage kids with storytelling, crafts, and music that weave seamlessly into the story. Parents can dive into making mini tents or DIY travel snacks as Abraham might have packed. Emphasize using songs like ‘Father Abraham’ to get the wiggles out while learning.

Encourage kids to point out faith stories they love. This makes learning active, as opposed to passive. Parents sharing their aha moments or children’s interpretations can start a meaningful dialogue in the comments. So, tell us a story when your faith was unexpectedly fun!
