🚸 Children Ages 6-12 Years Old

We know that it is important to honor our parents and that God has entrusted us with mothers and fathers to care for and love us. It’s helpful to communicate to kids that God has actually commanded us to respect our parents, because He has placed them in our lives to help and watch over us. Even if we don’t have the best moms, we can celebrate the leaders that God gives us. This message reminds children that God loves and cares for us, and gives us others who do the same.

Honoring our parents isn’t only for the sake of obedience to the law or to family wishes. God gives this commandment with a promise: that it may go well and we will live long. He knows that honoring our parents will ultimately bless us. He is the one who has given us those in authority over us. They will care for and provide for us, and we can give thanks to God for the leaders He provides.

This lesson plan provides activities and Bible verses to help children understand the importance of honoring their parents. It discusses how God commands us to honor our parents and why honoring them is not only a commandment but also a blessing. The lesson also encourages children to show their appreciation for their mothers and other mother figures in their lives.

Honoring our mothers is an important commandment given by God in the Bible. It is one of the Ten Commandments with a special promise attached to it. When we honor our parents, God blesses us and promises that things will go well for us, and we will have a long life. This is because by honoring our parents, we are honoring God who placed our mothers in our lives to love and care for us. It is a way to show our love and respect for God and acknowledge and appreciate all that our mothers do for us. So, honoring our mothers is a wonderful way to show our love for God and for them.

Fun, Biblical Mother's Day Lesson

I was searching for a fun Mother's Day lesson as a break from their more intensive Sunday School lessons, and this was perfect! Totally scriptural, and the theme was good for Mom's special day. Thank you.

Material was great! Pictures were excellent! Thank you!

I truly enjoy your materials for Sunday School. Our church is very small and sometimes we have to combine classes with all ages. I can usually use your material that will be enjoyed by all ages.

Children's Church

I love the availability of free lessons I can download for Children's Church. Our church doesn't currently have a budget for Children's Church and I'm on a fixed income, so the option of free lessons is very valuable and the kids seem to enjoy the items I download.
