Mold Your Children To Follow The Rules!

This activity will cover the topics of rules, obedience and sin!

It is an activity to teach children that the world and their home is a much better place because of rules!

Materials:Poster board, Different colored markers, Clip art or pictures that relate to the rules, Glue

Explain to your children that they can help you create the house rules! (This sounds CRAZY to some, right?!) Have the children make suggestions on what they think would make good rules for the home. You may want to have paper and a pencil ready and be ready to jot down the children's ideas!

After the children and the adult's rules have been written down, share all of these rules with the children, ask them which ones they think are more important and why!

Take the poster board and write the rules you have decided to use in your home (a playroom, the refrigerator, etc.), starting with the ones the children thought were most important. Since some children doing this activity can't read, have the kids glue a related picture next to each rule, this will help the children remember the rule even if they can't read!

Knowing that there are rules will help the children feel safe and secure!

Tell your children that God has a set of rules that people are to follow as well. When people follow God's rules the world is much better place! When we don't follow God's rules it's called sin.

Who knew creating rules could be so much fun?!
