In this week's lesson, we focused on the fact that God made us and knows us. He made each person special and God's picture, His puzzle, isn't complete without each of our pieces. Dig out a puzzle from your closet, or buy or borrow a new one, and spend time putting the puzzle together. As you work, talk about what makes your family special and how your family wouldn't be complete without each family member.

A puzzling way to reinforce scripture.
Another fun way to spend time together, continue on the path of our puzzle activity, AND reinforce our memory verse, is to create your own puzzle. Find a piece of cardboard, or cardstock. Write the memory verse and decorate the picture. Then, have someone cut it all apart in different shapes. (Make sure the pieces are large enough to handle, but small enough to create a challenge!) If you'd like, you can even download a puzzle template, just print it out, decorate, then laminate before you cut! It will last even longer. Once it's all cut up, put it back together again. You could even repeat this each week and have a set of puzzles to help you remember key verses!
If you participate in any of our activity suggestions - let me know!

Many Smiles,
