NOAH'S ARK, & RAINBOWS

 

Our Bible story emphasis this week will be Noah builds an ark and God's promise through a rainbow. We will sing "Mr. Noah builds an Ark" (sung to "Old McDonald Had a Farm,") "Rainbow Color" song, (sung with a brightly colored rainbow on a stick)."

RAINBOW COLORS

Tune: Hush, Little Baby
Rainbow purple, rainbow blue
Rainbow green and yellow, too.
Rainbow orange, rainbow red.
Rainbow smiling overhead.
Come and count the colors with me.
How many colors can you see?
One, two, three, down to green,
Four, five, six can be seen.
Rainbow purple, rainbow blue,
Rainbow green and yellow, too.
Rainbow orange, rainbow red,
Rainbow smiling overhead.

Other songs we will sing include "I'm in the Lord's Army," "5 Little Ducks," "Twinkle Star," and we will have a story/song on "Noah and the Mighty Ark," that we will look at the pictures and sing "Rise and Shine and Give God the Glory." Our craft activity should be fun as we have pudding in red, orange, yellow, and green to make hand print pudding rainbows.

During our opening activities, I have purchased dot paints in five different colors the children can use to color a rainbow pattern to take home.

 

Storytime this week includes "Planting a Rainbow" by Lois Ehlert about planting seeds and bulbs in the ground and the rainbow colors that emerge when the flowers bloom.  Our second book is "Llama, llama Red Pajama," by Anna Dewdney, a favorite of the children, about little llama overcoming his fears to go to sleep.

 

We're looking forward to a fun week.
