Last week at toddler group we told the story about the Baptism of Jesus. This week we move on to the calling of Simon and Andrew to follow Jesus.
To help the children picture what is happening in the story I have made a boat and two disciples using an egg box and cardboard rolls.
The story will be very short and will be told from Mark 1:16-18.
The visual aids are easy to make – all you need is
Egg box (6 egg size)
Two toilet rolls or cardboard rolls
Two pieces of material for head gear and two pipe cleaners to fasten material
Felt pens or Sharpies to colour cardboard roll disciples
Paint to colour egg box
Pipe cleaner for mast and triangle large enough to fold around pipe cleaner to make sale (stick this with double sided sticky tape)
The pictures should give a clear idea of how everything was made!
For a simple craft make a paper plate fish
