Bible Story: God Helped Gideon To Be Courageous
Bible Text: Judges 6—7
- Orange and yellow construction paper
- Bathroom tissue rollers (1 per student)
Step 1. Give children a sheet of yellow and a sheet of orange construction paper. Instruct kids to begin cutting the sheets into feather shapes, some large and some small.
Step 2. Give students the tissue paper rollers and instruct them to use their crayons to color the roller to resemble wood. This will be the wooden base of the torch.
Step 3. Using a glue stick, guide students in gluing the yellow and orange papers to the inside of the tissue paper roller. Keep layering the papers to create a yellow and orange flame.
