Finishing up our Creation Story book

August 11, 2009 Ticia 3 Comments

This is the final step in our Creation Story book, which I’ll never make into a Sunday School lesson (because I’m not brave enough.   I kind of cheated on the last two days. My kids can’t draw, and I don’t have a large collection of magazines to tear up for a collage. Or at least not ones that would help with what we needed, so what did we do?

STICKERS!

Supplies (these are affiliate links, I bought mine at a local teacher supply store): Safari Animals Stickers, Fun Fish Stickers, farm Animals Stickers, Zoo Animals Stickers

Who doesn’t love stickers? My kids certainly do.

So for Day 5, creating birds and fish draw a wavy line down the middle of the page. Then color the water and start putting stickers on.

Day 6 we just loaded up with animal stickers. As you can see I meant that quite literally. Superman had a blast just putting stickers all over the place. Eventually, the page ended up about an inch thick. Okay, probably not really, it just seemed like it.

And that is where I let some control freak parts go, and let him put the bird on the wrong page because “Nests go in trees, Mommy.” So, apparently according to Batman on Day 3 God also created 1 bird and a nest to go in the tree.

And for Day 7 when God rested we have a nice blank page. I thought about putting a picture of the kids sleeping, but I rested instead and didn’t print it off.

Our Creation book is now done. I have put packing tape at the top of the pages and 3 hole punched them, and they’re going into our calendar notebook to keep and review frequently.

We had a lot of fun making it, and a lot of fun talking about the different things and discovering lots.

    Great work and a clever idea to use stickers. Anna loves them too lately, since she has an easier time peeling them off. I think your Creation book turned out really nice.

    We loved doing our Creation lessons!!! We actually turned it into a lapbook. I am really a sucker for those things. I tend to “find” extra stuff to have my daughter do…just so that I can put it in her lapbooks…just cause it is cute…not really because of the educational value of it. I know…it is sad…but true. Maybe one of these days I will post a pic of her Creation lapbook. Any-hoo…congrats on finishing it up and great work!!! I love that on day 7 you “rested” as well…I need to do more of that! {smile}
