Every week the girls are working on a new Bible memory verse. This past week was Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth". I try to find books, songs and other activities to enhance the learning so for this one we made a Creation Book. One day we cut things out of magazines and the next couple days we assembled the book. They really like looking at it and having me "read" it to them.
Sydney really likes to cut things out of magazines so I have started letting her cut out whatever she wants....when she is finished, she tells me what each thing is and why she cut them out. And I paste them into her "journal". Then when daddy comes home, we show him. It's fun to see what she cuts out and her cutting skills are getting so much better! Kayleigh likes to pick up the pictures that Syd has cut out and cut them in half! That doesn't go over so well.
What a fantastic idea. I bet that really helps with the memory verse too. SO CUTE!!! You gotta enjoy the sisterly love of cutting the pictures in half, too funny!
