Take a field trip to a local grocery store. Many grocery stores will provide a tour of the different areas of the grocery store including the stockroom. Make sure to call the grocery store a couple days before to see if they can provide you and the children a tour of the store. The behind-the-scenes tour gives the children a new perspective of the grocery store.

I Can Be a Follower is a song that reminds us that Paul became a follower of Jesus and we can be followers of Jesus as well.
I have put in two signs that you can learn from the video and then teach them to your children. You may want to have the children stand up to sing this song since they have been sitting for a bit and you can sing it with them a couple of times.
I Can Be a Follower
To the tune of: “Do You Know The Muffin Man?”
Paul became a follower,
a follower, a follower. (sign for follower)
Paul became a follower
of Jesus my friend. (sign for friend)
I can be a follower,
a follower, a follower. (sign for follower)
I can be a follower
of Jesus my friend. (sign for friend)

Provide the children with a drinking glass 3/4 full of water. Measure and put into one of the glasses 6 tablespoons of salt. Use a spoon to stir the salt and water until you can no longer see any of the salt. Tell the children that by doing this they have made a solution. They mixed up two substances until they became one substance. Put the two glasses in front of the children on a table. Be sure to remember which one has the salt in it. Carefully drop one egg into the water without the salt. (It might be easier to lower it gently with a spoon.) See what happens. Carefully drop the other egg into the water with the salt in it. See what happens.
Why did it work? When you added salt to the one glass of water, you made this water heavier. A heavier liquid will support objects with more weight than a lighter liquid will. The salty water actually weighs more than the plain water.
When you put the egg in the salty water, it is able to float. The same thing happens when we swim in seawater or, especially, in the very salty water of the Great Salt Lake in Utah or the Dead Sea in the Middle East. When we are in salty water, we float more easily or feel more "buoyant."
