The Devil Made Me Do It

To define temptation

The children will share practical ways to fight temptation.

• Index cards
• Pens or pencils

• Give each child an index card.
• Ask the children to draw a small circle face with a frown in the upper left-hand corner and then to write a situation that could be a cause of temptation for a child their age.
• Collect the cards.
• Distribute one card to each child. (It's OK if a child gets his or her own card back.)
• Direct the children to turn the cards over and draw a small circle face with a smile in the upper right-hand corner. On the smiley side of the card, they should write some advice as to how to handle the temptation.
• Choose volunteers to read their cards to the class.

Self Smart, Word Smart

Remind children that as always they should give good Christian advice.
