Bible

Tape
•
Write the names of the first 17 books of the Bible (Old
Testament Law and History) on construction paper strips.
Older children can cut the strips and write the names of
the books themselves.
Instructions:
•
Children can cut strips and write the names of the Bible books
on them. Guide children to make a paper chain by putting the
books of the Old Testament Law and History in order. Tape
each loop as it is placed on the chain.
•
Children and work together or in groups or even by divisions of
the Bible then add each section to the chain.
•
This is a great game for early arrivers in Sunday School since
kids are busy and the teachers are welcoming other children
and helping them get started.
•
This activity can be worked on each week until it is completed.
Option: Bible Book Look Up
Lead early arrivers to work at their own pace to open their Bibles
to any book, name the book that comes next, and then look to
check their answers.
