Atonement: Jesus Is the Lamb of God little lamb block John 1:29

ACTIVITY COMES IN TWO SIZES small and large (the box can also be used to insert treats)

OBJECTIVE: Help children learn the scripture John 1:29 “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world,” and talk of Jesus who is the LAMB OF GOD (Son to Heavenly Father). Heavenly Father gave His only begotten Son Jesus to be sacrificed for the world – to save us from sin and death.

ACTIVITY: Help children make this LITTLE LAMB BLOCK (instructions below) and stuff it with candy or cotton balls and glue pieces of cotton on the outside. Read the John 1:29 scripture (noted above). Then have fun with the activity (or give it as an Easter gift to children).

Includes image in black-and-white and color

Herd the Sheep. To make it really fun, make several LITTLE LAMB BLOCKS for the family or your class and push/drive the lambs around on the table (herding the sheep).

Jesus is not only the LAMB OF GOD, but He is also known as the Good Shepherd and we are His sheep. Tell about the parable Jesus gave of the LOST SHEEP, how we are all important to Him. He doesn’t want any one of us to be lost. He wants us to repent and return to Him and to heaven again someday.

TO MAKE Print on cardstock and color a LITTLE LAMB BLOCK for each child/youth. Cut out and fold the box/block and the flaps and glue tabs/flaps leaving the top open to stuff with cotton or candy. Put pieces of cotton on the outside of the box (gluing them in place).

THOUGHT TREAT: Lambie Pie or Cookie. If you have ever heard anyone call you “Lambie Pie” they might mean that you are cute or precious, or lovable. Jesus loved each of us. To make a pie, cut miniature marshmallows in half with scissors and glue on a round sugar cookie with frosting. Then cut the cookie into pie-shaped slices to eat. Cookie Option. Cut out lamb-shaped sugar cookies and frost.

Special treats can also be placed in the small or large box.
