Title: Animals and Plants in God’s Creation

Lesson Objective: To teach young children about the animals and plants that God created and how we should appreciate and care for them.

Introduction:
Hello, young friends! Today, we are going to learn about the amazing animals and plants that God created. As we learn about them, we will also learn how special they are and how we can take care of them.

The Beauty of Animals and Plants:
God created so many wonderful animals and plants. He made colorful flowers, tall trees, furry animals, and so much more. Each one is special and unique. When we look at them, we can see how creative and loving our God is.

Taking Care of God’s Creation:
God wants us to take good care of the animals and plants He made. That means we should not harm them or destroy their habitats. We can show our love for God’s creation by picking up litter, planting flowers, and being kind to animals. We can also pray and thank God for the beauty of His creation.

Appreciating God’s Gifts:
We can learn so much from animals and plants. They teach us about God’s love, creativity, and care for all living things. Let’s take time to appreciate the animals and plants around us. We can visit a park or garden, observe the birds and insects, and marvel at the beauty of God’s creation.

Conclusion:
God made the animals and plants because He loves us and wants us to enjoy His beautiful world. Let’s remember to appreciate and take care of His creation, and thank Him for the wonderful animals and plants He made. We are blessed to be surrounded by God’s amazing creation!

– Yarn or string
– Hole punch
– Glue
– Stickers or small cut-outs of animals and plants
