Basic 2 Year Curriculum - Week 20

I'm His Little Lamb

Over the next few weeks, the child will learn that Jesus is our Shepherd. Collect all the activities and crafts to create an "I am His Little Lamb" book. At the end of the study, a cover worksheet will be provided to bind the pages together.

Lamb Puppet

Cut out the lamb pieces on the Lamb Puppet worksheet.  Glue the head to the bottom of a white paper bag. Attach the legs to the sides and the opening (ensure they are positioned so they won’t be covered by the hand). Glue the tongue inside the fold of the bag. Roll thin strips of white paper around a pencil to curl them and glue them as wool on the lamb’s head.
