Playdoh Creations

How to Play Playdoh Creations:

Ask a child to come up help mold a shape with the playdoh while the rest of the Primary sings Tell Me the Stories of Jesus. After the song, show off the playdoh creation and have the children guess what the shape is. Connect the shape to one of the stories of Jesus!

Continue having additional helpers come up and create a shape while you sing through the song.

You can prepare the following idea cards and laminate them so they can be used as a template the kids can press the playdoh onto while creating their shape!

Playdoh Creation Ideas:

Foot – Jesus walked on water
Book – Jesus taught from the scriptures
Grapes – He turned water into wine
Boat – Jesus calmed the storm while on the boat with the apostles
Sheep – Parable of the lost sheep, Jesus is the good shepherd
Heart – He loves us unconditionally and gave his life for us.

Extension Activity:

Have the children whisper their favorite story from Jesus’ life into your ear. You can help them think of a simple shape to mold, if they need assistance. Then let them share their favorite story and shape after the song!
Have a competition with two children both trying to shape the same symbol. Then have the children pick the next participant from the other team!
