Preschool 411:
Preschoolers talked about how God revealed that Jesus was the Rescuer when Jesus was baptized (Matthew 3:13-17). Jesus set an example for others to follow. Then he chose 12 friends to follow him (Matthew 4:18-22). We played a game to help us understand what it means to follow! Ask kids to tell you about it.
Kindergarten-5th Grade Scoop:
Speaking of following, kindergarten-2nd graders found out that following Jesus means acting like him. The very first followers were called the disciples. You can see what Shrimpola says about them in the video below. Then ask your kids: how can we follow Jesus?
Ask Shrimpola: Disciples
Third through fifth-graders found out that Jesus even showed us how to resist temptation. He was tempted yet never sinned. Find out what he did by reading Matthew 4:1-11 together. Then follow his lead!
