Craft
Ask your child to think of things that can distract people from following Jesus.
Help them look those things up and print pictures of them. Cut out the pictures and use them to make a collage at the bottom of a piece of paper. At the top of the paper, write, “I will follow Jesus.” Remind your child that many things on Earth will fight for our attention, but we should only follow Jesus.
