NOAH BIBLE STORY - For Preschoolers

God told Noah, "Build a BIG boat." (Move arms showing "big").

God told Noah, "This needs to be a REALLY BIG boat." (move arms showing "really big").

Noah obeyed God.

Noah worked and worked. (Say: "Hammer - hammer, Hammer - hammer" and do motions).

Noah worked and worked. (Say: "Hammer - hammer, Hammer - hammer" and do motions).

Hurry, Noah, Hurry. It's going to rain. (Say: "Hammer - hammer, Hammer - hammer" and do motions).

Noah worked and worked. (Say: "Hammer - hammer, Hammer - hammer" and do motions).

Hurry, Noah, Hurry. God is going to send lots and lots of rain. (Say: "Pitter-patter , pitter-patter" & do rain motions).

Noah finshed the big boat. (Say: "Whew" - do motion of hand across forehead in relief).

It rained. (Say: "Pitter-patter , pitter-patter" & do rain motions).

And rained. (Say: "Pitter-patter , pitter-patter" & do rain motions).

And rained. (Say: "Pitter-patter , pitter-patter" & do rain motions).

It rained for 40 days. (Say: "Pitter-patter , pitter-patter" & do rain motions).

It rained for 40 nights. (Say: "Pitter-patter , pitter-patter" & do rain motions).

Finally the rain stopped. It was the biggest flood the world ever had.

God promised He would never send that much rain again.

He put a beautiful rainbow (arc motions) in the sky as a reminder of His promise.
God keeps His promises.

A CHILD LEARNS WHAT HE LIVES

A Child Learns What He Lives
By Dorothy Law Nolte, Ph.D.

If children live with criticism,
they learn to condemn.

If children live with hostility,
they learn to fight.

If children live with ridicule,
they learn to feel shy.

If children live with shame,
they learn to feel guilty.

If children live with tolerance,
they learn patience.

If children live with praise,
they learn appreciation.

If children live with fairness,
they learn justice.

If children live with security,
they learn to have faith in themselves and in those about them.

If children live with friendliness,
they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.
