Daniel in the Lions Den

Day 1: Daniel prayed

         For this day, we talked about who Daniel is and how he prayed. We practiced praying like him and then colored a picture. Simple and easy! 

 

Day 2: The Lions Den

        We grabbed some lego blocks and built the lions "home" and just happened to have a Melissa and Doug puzzle that has a lion piece.

Day 3: Daniel in the Lions Den

        Literally-- Daniel in the Lions Den. LOL!!!! 

 

Day 4: Lion Puppet

        For this one, I cut up some orange and yellow construction paper and we glued them on the lions face part of the brown paper bag and practiced making the lion say ROAR!

 

Day 5: Lion Mask

     This was a particularly rough day---everyone was just grumpy and to not contribute to that grumpiness of having to take away a glue stick, I completely made this one ahead of time and then we just put it up to our faces and had fun being the lion.

      All I did was cut up the strips of construction paper and glue them around a paper plate that had the center cut out and then made 2 ears out of brown paper and glued those on. 

 

Days 6 and 7: Being praying Daniel in the Lions Den

This one was a big hit so we did it 2 days in a row. We layed out a blanket (but could easily be made from a baby gate or play pen) and took turns being a lion using our face mask and the other would be a praying Daniel. 

So there you have it! Another week of fun, easy, simple ways to bring God into your home!!
