Creating (Decorating) A Lion's Den
Thank you all SO MUCH for your ideas!! We made a lions den by lining half the room with brown paper, and making an entrance with tables on their sides. We wanted to put glow in the dark eyes and play lion sounds, but didn't get it done in time. However, the kids LOVED the lions den. It was a really good way for them to feel and understand the story. We wrote prayer concerns on paper lions and hung them up in the den. Also, they wanted to hang the verse on the den wall. After church, the kids took people back and showed them the lions den and told them the story. They've remembered a lot about this story and I think the den visual helped alot. This is the first time they've shared so much. It also showed me that everything doesn't have to be perfect for it to work. Thanks again for all the support from this website--I'd be lost without all of you.
