The Birth of Jesus

Possible Viewpont: Anglican Christian

Title: The Birth of Jesus

Lesson Objective: To teach young children about the birth of Jesus Christ as portrayed in Revelation 12:5-6.

Introduction:
Good morning boys and girls! Today we are going to learn about the special birth of a very important person. Do you know who Jesus Christ is? Today we will learn about the amazing story of Jesus’ birth and how special it is.

Bible Verse: “She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.” (Revelation 12:5-6)

Story:
Once upon a time in a little town called Bethlehem, a special baby was born. His name was Jesus. He was a very important baby because he was the Son of God. His mother, Mary, and her husband Joseph traveled a long way to Bethlehem and when they arrived, there was no room for them in the inn. So, Jesus was born in a stable and laid in a manger – a feeding trough for animals. Can you imagine that? The King of Kings was born in a humble stable!

Lesson:
Jesus’ birth was a very special event. The Bible verse we read from Revelation tells us that Jesus would rule over all the nations. This means that Jesus was born to be the King of the whole world! Even though He was born in a humble stable, angels came to announce His birth and shepherds came to worship Him. Jesus’ birth was a very important part of God’s plan to save us from sin and give us eternal life.

Activity:
Let’s draw a picture of the baby Jesus in a manger. You can use crayons or markers to make your picture colorful and beautiful. As you draw, think about how special and important Jesus is. You can also ask your parents to read the Christmas story from the Bible (Matthew 1:18-25, Luke 2:1-20) to understand more about Jesus’ birth.

Closing:
Today we learned about the special birth of Jesus Christ. Let’s remember to be thankful for Jesus, who was born to be our King and Savior. Just like the shepherds who came to worship Him, let’s also praise Jesus for coming to earth and loving us so much! Amen.

Craft Idea

Craft Idea: Baby Jesus Ornament

Supplies:
– Child-safe craft foam or felt
– Scissors
– Glue
– Felt markers or paint
– Yarn or ribbon

Instructions:
1. Begin by cutting out a small oval or circle shape from the craft foam or felt. This will serve as the base for the baby Jesus ornament.
2. Next, cut out a smaller oval or circle shape from a different color of craft foam or felt to represent the baby Jesus’ head.
3. Glue the smaller shape onto the larger shape to create the baby’s body.
4. Use felt markers or paint to add a face to the baby Jesus.
5. Cut small strips of yarn or ribbon to create a halo for baby Jesus. Glue the halo onto the top of the baby’s head.
6. Finally, poke a small hole at the top of the ornament and thread a piece of yarn or ribbon through it to create a loop for hanging.

While the children are making their baby Jesus ornaments, discuss the lesson on the birth of Jesus and read Revelation 12:5-6 to tie in the lesson on the male child Christ. Encourage the children to think about the significance of Jesus’ birth and its impact on the world.

Once the ornaments are completed, the children can take them home as a reminder of the lesson and as a symbol of Jesus’ birth.
