The summer vacation is here! The extra time at home might feel like a welcome relief, or a chaotic nightmare—or both! But for every family, the summer’s a great opportunity to learn together from the Bible. That’s why each week over the summer we’ll be posting an idea to help you get young children to engage with the Bible.
First up is a recipe for creation cookies—which remind us of the creation story from Genesis 1. Tell the Bible story; do the cooking activity; and talk about what you’ve learned.
