What We Learned:
Today, your child learned that God created rules to keep us safe. These rules have been in place since the beginning when God first created the world. The children discovered why it is important to follow the rules to stay safe, and learned how something very bad happened when Adam and Eve didn’t follow God’s rules. (Scripture used: Genesis 3:1-24) |

Words to Remember:
(Bible versions used are selected to help young children learn and understand the meaning of scripture.)
"Listen to my instruction and be wise; do not ignore it." Proverbs 8:33
Practice this verse several times with your
child during the week. This will not only help your child remember the verse,
but also it will help to reinforce what he or she learned during class. |

Suggested Parent/Child Activity:
Remind your child of certain rules that your family has and why it is so important to follow them. Talk about consequences and punishment when someone does not follow the rules. Explain to your child that the rules are only made to keep him or her safe and that they are meant to be followed. Also let your child know that he or she is loved and that is another reason we set certain rules. |

Daily Prayer:
Dear Lord, thank You for the rules You have set for me. Even though I might not always understand why You have the rules, I do thank You for when You show me that I am doing what is right. Help me follow my parents’ rules so that I can show them that I also love and respect them. Amen. |
