Bible Verse Coloring Pages
Gather your little ones! Bible verse coloring pages are both fun and educational. Use simple pages featuring verses like John 3:16 or Psalm 23:1. These pages help kids learn scripture while they color. To make it even more exciting, create a mini coloring book. Add a new verse each week to build their spiritual knowledge. Trust me, you’ll end up with a fridge full of beautiful artwork and a little one who can quote scripture—talk about a win-win!

Noah’s Ark Animal Parade
Noah’s Ark is a classic Bible story that kids love. Why not turn it into a fun craft? Use paper plates to create an ark and cut-out animals to fill it. As they glue the animals onto the ark, recount the story of Noah. Don’t forget to emphasize important lessons like obedience and faith. My kids always loved putting the elephants and giraffes on the ark—it’s hilarious to see their animal kingdom creations!
Fruit of the Spirit Tree
Growing a Fruit of the Spirit tree is an awesome way to teach Christian values. Draw a big tree on a poster board and let your child add ‘fruit’ to it. Each fruit represents a different virtue such as love, joy, and kindness. Use colored paper cutouts for the fruits and add them to the tree whenever your child demonstrates these virtues. It’s not just a craft, it’s a visual reminder of their good deeds!
Prayer Bracelets
Prayer bracelets are both stylish and devotional. Using colorful beads and elastic strings, you can create a bracelet where each bead represents a prayer or a blessing. This hands-on activity not only serves as a tangible reminder for kids to pray but also allows them to express their creativity.
Whenever children look at their bracelet, they’ll be reminded of their prayers. It’s a wonderful way to blend faith and craft! My daughter adores her rainbow prayer bracelet; she cherishes it and wears it every day!
Jesus Loves Me Handprint Art
Handprint art is always a hit with preschoolers. Create a ‘Jesus Loves Me’ handprint craft by using paint and a paper canvas. Have your child dip their hands in paint and make a handprint. Write ‘Jesus Loves Me’ at the top and John 3:16 at the bottom. It’s a personal keepsake that captures both their creativity and an essential Bible lesson. Plus, it’s an adorable decoration for any room!
Joyful Noise Musical Instruments
Make joyful noise with homemade musical instruments. Craft simple instruments like tambourines using paper plates and dried beans, or maracas from plastic eggs and rice. Let your child decorate them with Christian symbols like crosses and fish. Once made, put on some Christian children’s music and have a mini worship session. Our kitchen concerts with our DIY instruments are among my best memories!
