 Cut the large camel out and the blue water hump out. Tape the blue water hump part to the back of the camel. Make sure they cut a slit in the camel first and then it will open and close to show the blue water. Write the word, "FAT" on the inside. Camels actually carry fat in their humps. Tape the camel on the left side of the folder at the bottom. Directly above the camel you will need to have the kids cut the questions out. Just take the entire paper and fold in in half. Then staple the paper in two spots next to the questions. Have them cut on the lines. Tape the entire paper down on the folder. Let the kids write their answers on the second piece of paper when you lift it up.

Printable Template

 Here is the printable template for the words. You might need to help them a little to get this cut out right. Tell them the bible story before you start all this so they can answer the questions. The answers are: 10 Camels, 2 Bracelets, 1 Earring, Jewels of Gold.

Now for the right side of the folder. Cut the bracelets and earring out along with the small camel and the blank box. You will need to have the kids tape all this down on the folder and then have them add fake jewels (got mine from Oriental Trading) inside the blank box.

Supplies:
Yellow Folder
Tape
Elmer's Glue
3 Printable Sheets (All below)
Construction Paper- Brown and Black
Rice
Noodles
Oatmeal Flakes
Paper Umbrella Topper (oriental trading)
Scissors

Front Cover Template- print and cut out and tape to the front of the folder.

 

 This is a picture of what the front of the folder should look like. Just print the "Let's Be An Ant" template out and have the child cut the picture out and tape it down to the front.

 Here is a close up picture of the little ants collecting food. It has the scripture from Proverbs 6:6 on it.

Now if you open the folder up, on the left hand side of the folder is a picture of ants and the scriptures from Proverbs 6:6-8.  The bottom say's, "We need to stay busy working for God!"  Just print the template out and have the children cut the ants out and tape all three ants to the left side of the folder along with the scripture. The words, "We need to stay busy working for God" is on the other printable sheet. 

There are two small ants they do not have bodies. These two ants are going to be a little hard for the kids to cut out depending on the ages. These two ants will go on top of the ant hill. The ant hill is made from black and brown construction paper.

Printable sheet for left and right side of folder

Printable Ant Template- print and cut out ant and tape above ant hill. Add the words on left page of folder.

Just cut the shape of ant hill out of brown and black construction paper. Make sure they are the same size. Then use a pencil or pen and draw a path for the ants onto the brown construction paper. They will need to cut this out and then tape the brown construction paper to the black so that way it will show up. 

Then the kids will need to add their two ants to the top of that and tape a paper umbrella to the hand of one of the ants. 

Have the children add some Elmer's glue and put some "eggs and food" (rice, noodles and oatmeal flakes) inside of their little dens. 

 The rice looks like some pretty realistic eggs!

 Here is the food the ants stored up- oatmeal and wheat noodles.

Here is the close up of an ant carrying a watermelon and the Bible. The point behind this lesson is that ants are always busy working and gathering food up for the winter. We need to stay busy working for God. However, notice that they do hibernate during the winter. We should not work ourselves around the clock until we are burned out.The Bible specifically say's to consider the ants. Which means take a look at their character. They stay on the go up until the winter time.We should balance our work as well.

A a child you might be wondering what it is that you could do for the Lord. Well, let's just see. You could visit the sick, bake some cookies for a neighbor and take it to them with a special note that say's Jesus loves you. You could help in Sunday school class and ask your teacher if you could help do something. You could witness to your friends about Jesus. You could pray for others. There are lot's of things to do and God needs our help to make sure that the message of his gospel gets to others. We are the little feet that need to go into the world and spread the good news of JESUS!

We should stay busy doing something for the Lord even if it seems small. The Lord is pleased when we try our best and give our ALL in everything we do.

 He will bless those that work for him and try. We have to stay busy like a little ant to make sure that we are storing up our treasures in heaven. We must work while it is day and while there is still time.

Pray, study the Bible, visit the sick, help others, volunteer for things. Tell others about Jesus....It's just a simple message that others need to hear. Jesus can save their soul. That's what's it all about! It might be hard along the way, but that's okay. It won't stay difficult forever. Ants have to crawl and cover areas that might be a little hard to reach at times, but it's worth it because when winter gets there they will be able to enjoy the fruit of their labor.

Keep on moving for God. It will be worth it in the end.

Jesus Raised Lazarus From The Dead Lapbook Craft For Kids In Sunday School or Children's Church

Jesus Raised Lazarus From The Dead Lapbook Craft For Kids In Sunday School or Children's Church

You are going to need-

• Colored Folder
• Tomb Template-(printable version down below)
• Scripture Template -(printable version down below)
• 5 Q-tips (for arms and legs)
• 1 Large Popsicle Stick (for Lazarus on front of folder)
• Toilet Paper
• Round Object for Lazaurs Head- (We used a wood slice)
• Tape
• Scissors or Decorative Cutting Scissors
• Goggle Eyes or Sticker Eyes or you can just use a black sharpie marker
• Black Sharpie Marker -(to write word "Teardrop" and for Lazarus Eyes)
• Blue Construction Paper- (for teardrop)

This is a really simple lapbook craft. Just print both templates out below.  Have the kids cut everything out. Have them cut the door on the tomb open. Make sure they do not cut all the way around it or else it won't open and close.

Tape the tomb and the scripture on the front of the folder. Next have them make Lazarus from a large popsicle stick sticking out of the tomb. Just have them wrap the popsicle stick in toilet paper and tape in the back so it will hold. Then tape two Q-tips to the back for arms. Then tape the entire Lazarus body inside of the tomb. Add two eyes using a black sharpie marker or let them use sticker eyes or even goggle eyeballs. We just used a black sharpie to make it easy. However some used sticker eyeballs that they had found laying in my room.

Next open the folder up and work on the inside. Using decorative cutting scissors you can have them cut the scripture story out and tape down on the left side of the folder. This will tell the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. 

On the right side of the folder have them cut a teardrop out of blue construction paper. Just take 1 piece of blue construction paper and fold it in half and make sure you cut the teardrop out correctly so it will open and close. Just don't cut on the fold part. The blue teardrop is for the scripture that say's "Jesus wept". Tape the teardrop on the right side of the folder and tape the Jesus picture right above. You could have the kids add paint glitter to the inside of the teardrop if you want.  Make sure they write the word, "Teardrop" on the front of the tear using a black sharpie marker or crayon.

Next have them make another Lazarus to add next to the teardrop. I used a wood slice and covered it toilet paper. You could use any round object you want. I made a slit in the toilet paper and taped goggle eyeballs on to the wood slice. I added three Q-tips for the body, arms and legs. I just taped those down too. 

There is enough room to add something else below the Lazarus if you want. You could have the kids draw a picture of Mary and Martha (Lazarus Sister's).

  Printable Template for the Scripture to go on the inside of the folder on the left hand side.

The other template below is for the front of the folder however it does have the Jesus picture included in it that goes on the inside of the folder on the right hand side.

 The Bible Story From Scripture John 11:1-45

John 11:1  Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

John 11:2  (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

John 11:3  Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

John 11:4  When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

John 11:5  Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

John 11:6  When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

John 11:7  Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

John 11:8  His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

John 11:9  Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

John 11:10  But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

John 11:11  These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

John 11:12  Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

John 11:13  Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

John 11:14  Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

John 11:15  And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.

John 11:16  Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

John 11:17  Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.

John 11:18  Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:

John 11:19  And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

John 11:20  Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.

John 11:21  Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

John 11:22  But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.

John 11:23  Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

John 11:24  Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

John 11:25  Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

John 11:26  And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

John 11:27  She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

John 11:28  And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

John 11:29  As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.

John 11:30  Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.

John 11:31  The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.

John 11:32  Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

John 11:33  When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,

John 11:34  And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

John 11:35  Jesus wept.

John 11:36  Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

John 11:37  And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

John 11:38  Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

John 11:39  Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.

John 11:40  Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

John 11:41  Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

John 11:42  And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

John 11:43  And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

John 11:44  And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

John 11:45  Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.
