Give each child a piece of white cardstock, a white crayon, and a paintbrush. Set paint and water on each table. Have children write the words “Trust God” on their paper, pressing hard with the crayon to make thick, clear letters. Then have children paint the paper to reveal the words. Provide wipes to clean fingers as needed.

colored paper, string, scissors, hole punch, markers/crayons
Gather supplies. Cut colored paper into triangles (six triangles per child). Cut string into 3-foot sections (one per child). Make a sample craft.
Give each child six triangles and a string. Set crayons/markers on each table. Have children write one of the letters of the word humble on each triangle (point side down) and then decorate. Help children punch two holes at the top of each triangle, then string and tie triangles onto the string in the right order (tying each triangle to the string to hold it in place). Space the triangles out by at least an inch. Tell children this garland can remind them that God rewards the humble.
