OT 18 ROTATION: PSALMS, Praising our Majestic Creator

Version 6.00

Features: Psalm 8, 13, 23

O Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! Children learn that the Psalms are a collection poems, prayers, and songs many written by David. Through the Psalms they learn that David loved to "talk" to God and told God his troubles but also praised God and thanked God for God?s faithfulness. Children learn ways the psalmists expressed themselves to God through song, poems, and prayers and how they can too. Through Psalm 8 "Wheel of Praise Game" children learn words of praise for our majestic creator and how God cares for God?s most valuable creation -- people. The Dance Workshop gives children ways to express praise to God through body movements and a groovy line dance. Psalm 13 has children identifying troubles and fears in their lives that weigh them down. Through a balancing activity and an art project they learn that they can have hope, confidence, and trust in the Lord. Children take a Psalm 23 journey where they experience and come to understand this favorite psalm. A Memory Challenge Workshop has them delving into the Bible and memorizing Psalm 23 through a challenging hopscotch game.
