Actually, we tied this in with creation because the paintng on the ceiling is of creation. Our children wore goggles, big white shirts and yes... we did use paint! It was amazing because the little ones (preK - 2nd) had less paint on them the older kids! This was a huge hit and alot of fun!

Creation Story
Art Workshop
Summary of Lesson Activities:
The children will hear/experience the Creation story by being creators. They will look at the work of Michelangelo on the Sistine Chapel Ceiling and will experiment with painting while lying on their backs and by painting frescoes. They will consider what it means to be created in God’s image and how they can use their creativity to bring glory to God.
