Day 3 – Creation of the Waters, Land and Plants

Memory Verse: Hopefully their getting your first one down! Keep at it daily! Soon your children will have a verse and its location memorized. Sadly this will be more than many adults have.

Genesis 1:9-13

God separated the water and the land and caused plants to grow. This is the first step in bringing life to this Earth. God again saw that this was good. He formed the world and created food which would reproduce and allow life on this earth. Talk to your kids about how important plants are. They produce food and oxygen. God knew what we would need before we were created and He had a plan that allowed us to live off of His creation. Remind them that God has a plan for us too.

You might plant a plant to grow for this stage. You might pick flowers or some fruit and talk about trees. Give them something to put their hands on. Dirt, water, anything will work. The more they touch it and see it the better they’ll remember it and understand it.
