Our Favorite Animals Can Teach Us About How God Helps Us

Little animals, like puppies and kittens, seem so small and helpless. Sometimes in life, we feel small and helpless too. But God is always there to help us if we just ask Him. In these 4 Bible lessons preschoolers will learn “in all things, God helps me.”

Bible Animals Preschool Ministry Curriculum Lesson Overview: 

Memory Verse: “But I know that God helps me. The Lord is the one who keeps me going.” Psalm 54:4 (NIrV)

Lessons:

Puppies

Scripture: Ruth 1:3-18, Ruth's Loyalty to Naomi

Puppies are loyal and loving; they make great friends. With God's help, we can be a good friend for those who need one. When Naomi was all alone, Ruth stayed by her side and took care of her. 

Objective: Kids will learn “God helps me be a friend.”

Kittens

Scripture: John 10:11-18, The Good Shepherd

Little kittens are soft and gentle, like sheep. Jesus is our Good Shepherd who treats us with kindness and gentleness. With God's help we can be gentle and kind to others. 

Objective: Kids will learn “God helps me be kind.”

Fish

Scripture: Jonah 1 & 2, Jonah Runs from God

Fish HAVE to stay in the water.  If they disobey that rule and jump out of their tank, they’ll be in big trouble! God gave Jonah instructions to go to Nineveh, but Jonah didn’t obey God’s instructions - he did the opposite of what he was told to do.   As a result, Jonah wound up in big trouble - inside the the belly of a big fish! With God’s help Jonah realized he needed to obey God and got a second chance. With God's help, we can be people who obey God too.   

Objective: Kids will learn “God helps me to obey.”

Birds

Scripture: Acts 3:1-10, Peter Heals the Crippled Beggar

Birds have powerful wings that help them soar up to great heights. When we trust God, he gives us the power to do great things for him. When Peter met a man who could not walk, he was able to heal him in the powerful name of Jesus. 

Objective: Kids will learn “God helps me do great things.”
