Making their favorite Bible Story come to Life in Art -- We had the kids look up a favorite bible story in the bible and then create it using all types of art material: clay, wax sticks, pompoms, markers, paint,material, felt, etc. (The wax sticks work great for making people stick figures).

Bible Books for Shelf Art -- Here are several ideas that are much easier than saving cereal boxes.

1. use empty video cases. Insert a label for each book in the spine and on the front. Students put these in order in the bookshelf.
2. One of the teacher suppliers (Trend or Good Apple) has a book shelf with books available at teacher supply stores. We laminated it, put a label on each book and attached it to a metal sheet. Put magnets on the back of the books. You can do Velcro if you prefer.
