Jesus Feeds 5000 Lesson
To tell the kids the story we brought in a picnic basket.
We laid out a blanket and talked about what we liked to take on picnics.
Then we tied it in with the story.
One boy had brought a lunch, but everyone else was hungry.
We know there were 5,000 men + women + children.
The one little lunch of 5 loaves and 2 fish fed everyone with plenty leftover.
They tore up the bread and the kids made circles around them.
The leader thanked God for the food and they ate their snack.
They are well suited to most kids in elementary school.
