Preparation:
Before class, print out the word FRIENDS in large
bubble letters, about two inches high, similar to the example shown above
or use the worksheet provided.
What you will do during class:
During class, give each child a sheet of paper with FRIENDS printed on
it and a pencil. Tell them to use the pencil to color in all the letters
completely and very dark with the pencil. This may take a few minutes.
After they are finished, you will have them rub their fingers over the
letters to see that the graphite from the word friends has rubbed off
on them.
What you will say:
The friends you choose in life can have a big impact on the way you act.
Friends influence what type of clothes you wear, the type of music you
listen to, what you believe about God, the way you treat others and the
list continues. In other words, friends can rub off on you. As Christians,
we need to be careful about who our friends are. Now that you are finished
coloring in the letters, rub your fingers over the letters. Now look at
your fingers. Just like that, friends can easily rub off on you. |
