Animal Safari Lessons Overview:

Memory Verse:

“'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty.”  Zechariah 4:6 NIV

Lessons:

Lion - A mighty family of lions is called a pride. If we don't control our pride, we are in for a mighty fall. Judges 16:4-22, Samson & Delilah

Zebra - A zebra looks kind of like a horse, but looks can be deceiving. When we deceive others to get what we want, we only hurt ourselves. Genesis 27:1-45, Jacob Tricks His Father

Tiger - They say a tiger can't change its stripes. When Jesus comes into our lives he changes us and makes us new. Luke 19:1-10, Zacchaeus the Tax Collector

Elephants - It's been said an elephant never forgets. When God forgives us, he remembers our sins no more. John 8:1-11, Jesus Forgives a Sinful Woman

Rhinoceros - The rhinoceros' great horn can be used to take down its competitors. The Israelites used a different kind of horn to bring down the walls of Jericho. Joshua 6:1-20, The Fall of Jericho

Monkeys - Monkeys are known for their playful attitudes. When it comes to truth and integrity, we shouldn't monkey around. Acts 5:1-11, Ananias and Sapphira

Hippopotamus - The hippopotamus is an aggressive animal who gets into fights almost daily. With God on our side, we can win any battle that comes our way. Judges 7:1-22, Gideon Defeats the Midianites

Cheetah - The cheetah is the fastest runner on the planet. No matter what we've done, we don't have to run from God. Jonah 1, Jonah Runs From God

Each Lesson Includes:

• Make It Stick! Parent Sheet - so you can let mom and dad know what kids are learning each week and look like a rockstar teacher who's thought of everything.
• Memory Verse - so that you can make sure kids are getting Scripture in their minds and hearts every single week and you can feel like each lesson was a success even when it seems like 90% of your lesson time is spent saying things like "calm down", "let's be quiet", "hands to yourself!" 
• Skit or Puppet Show - so you have a way to easily connect the lesson with your hands-on and visual learners. No drama team? No problem! Just hand the script to the kids. They'll have a blast and think you're the coolest.
• Craft Activity - so you can give kids a physical reminder of the Bible lesson (and give yourself an activity to keep them busy until mom and dad come back!)
• Game - so kids don't leave and say church was BORING! Games are so important to help keep kids engaged. Our large group games always include a "What's The Point" section to help you connect the game to the lesson.
• Large Group Lesson - so you can present the Bible story in a clear and fun way, which means now you can enjoy Saturday nights instead of stressing over putting a lesson together!
• Small-Group Discussion - so you can find out who was paying attention and who was talking to their neighbor.  Just kidding, this is a great way for you to build deeper relationships with your kiddos after each lesson, which means you're going to care about them so much you'll cry like a baby when they graduate and go to middle school :(
