Jesus Heals the Blind Man Craft

Jesus Heals The Blind Human being (John nine: 1-12)

I filled in for the 2-3 year old's Sunday School or Bible Class Teacher this by Wednesday and didn't have any lesson plans, and then we decided to do a super-unproblematic lesson on Jesus healing the bullheaded human from John 9: 1-12.

If y'all're not familiar with the story, here is the passage of scripture relating to Jesus rubbing mud in the blind man's eyes.

"After saying this, he (Jesus) spit on the basis, fabricated some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man's eyes. "Go," he told him, "launder in the Pool of Siloam" (this word means "Sent"). And then the man went and done, and came home seeing." -John 9: 6-vii

Merely for the record, nosotros leave the "spitting" part out of this story. A course of x 2 and iii-twelvemonth old BOYS do not need an excuse to be spitting in the name of Jesus.

Oddly enough, this story isn't establish in a lot of our favorite children'southward bibles (like this 1 and this one), but nosotros did find it in The Beginner's Bible.

Jesus Healed The Blind Human being Craft

For our simple hands-on arts and crafts activity after the story, I fabricated some mud playdough and let the boys play with it along with some googly eyes.

Delight excuse the poor moving picture quality…sometimes the iPhone takes peachy pics and ofttimes it doesn't!

This one sorta reminds me of a fox.

Afterwards class, each of the boys got to have home a baggie with their googly eyes and the playdough. The scripture reference was written on the baggie.

This Jesus Heals The Blind Man lesson is short, sweetness, and simple! Then again, that's a necessity with a form total of two and 3-year old boys!

Hither is the recipe for brand chocolate-scented 'mud' playdough:

Mud Playdough Recipe

Ingredients:

iv cups flour
1 loving cup cocoa
5 cups water
2 1/ii cups table salt (just virtually the equivalent of an entire container)
3 Tablespoons cream of tartar (I ran out after one Tbsp…run into the substitution beneath)
10 tablespoons oil (vegetable or canola)

Pace By Pace Instructions:

one. Mix the dry ingredients.

2. Add together the water and oil.

Commutation:  I ran out of cream of tartar after 1 tablespoon, so I had to utilize vinegar to make up the departure. But double the tablespoons when using vinegar (1 tablespoon foam of tartar= 2 tablespoons vinegar).

If you use vinegar, simply make sure to add a niggling extra flour (like ane/4 to 1/3 cup) so that it will still exist the right consistency. And don't worry almost your playdough smelling like vinegar…as information technology cooks, the odor goes away.

3. Stir all the ingredients together and cook over low-medium heat.

4. Keep stirring (yous'll get your forearm conditioning for the 24-hour interval in). The mixture volition starting time to thicken up and pull together. Keep going a little chip longer until…

…it is no longer viscous when you squeeze a piece of the mixture between your fingers.

5. In one case it'south no longer sticky, dump it out onto a clean surface.

6. While withal warm (but not hot) knead together until shine.

7. Cover with a dishcloth for about twenty minutes and then place inside a gallon-size plastic bag. Leave the handbag open up until there is no longer any condensation. Press all of the air out of the purse and seal. (In one case it was completely dry, I wrapped information technology in plastic cling-wrap commencement before putting it into the gallon-sized bag since I wasn't planning to use it for a few weeks.)
