The story of creation in the bible offers teachers and parents a lot to do for children's bible crafts. I created the following arts and crafts with the kids in my class and they loved the final product. Click here for my first Creation arts and crafts if you need more ideas.
Using acetate paper (projector paper) is not a regular occurrence in my
class and I believe that that in itself adds to the excitement.
Depending on the number of children in your group, this activity can
become expensive unless you can purchase acetate paper for cheap.
