The children will describe how God appeared to Jacob and then discuss how Jacob then honored God at Bethel. Each child will state what it means to be a child of God. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the tenth lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum and part of the “God Builds a Nation” unit.
