Creation Bible Lesson for Preschoolers

Open the Bible and read Genesis 1:11 and talk to your prechooler about fruit as one of the things God made and then make the Scratch and Sniff book.

Scratch and Sniff book

Materials:
construction paper
water
kool-aid or other powdered fruit drink mixes
plastic bowls
paintbrushes

In advance, make a book for scratch and sniff pictures. Draw pictures of fruit on pieces of paper. These will become the pages of the book. Print the name of the fruit on each page. Make a book cover that reads "God gives us good food."

Add 1 or 2 Tbsp. of water to a small package of powdered fruit drink mix. Lead preschoolers to paint with the appropriate fruit drink mixture to make fruits that actually smell like the picture they are painting. When the pictures are dry, show them how to scratch them with their fingernails to smell the fruit. Read the book together.
