Umbrellas of Refuge

Materials needed: 

• Construction paper of assorted colors 

• Scissors 

• Glue 

• Writing utensils 

What I Did: 

I cut out all of the umbrella pieces and raindrops on assorted colors of construction paper and the long strip of white paper for the verse . And then wrote out the verse on the white paper before I glued it. 

Then I glued all of the pieces to the black contradiction paper. Give the kids free reign to decorate after the gluing of all of the pieces. 

Clouds of Love

Materials needed: 

• Assorted colors of construction paper (for clouds & hearts) 

• Yarn or string 

• Hole puncher (*recommended) 

What I Did: 

First, I cut out a cloud out of white copy paper (white construction paper would work too). Then I hole-punched a hole at the top of the cloud for a string to hang it by, and 6 holes at the bottom of the cloud for the rainbow of hearts. 

I then tied 6 strings in the 6 holes at the bottom of the cloud. Then I wrote the verse on the cloud and names of people I love on the little hearts. Then glue the hearts with Elmer's glue onto the 6 strings (in rainbow order). 

Then you can decorate the cloud with stickers or anything you want when finished.
