I always think of this time of year as a cozy magical time and hot chocolate seems to fit right in with this time of year and with this wonderful story. If you'd like to read they story again while you drink the hot chocolate you can.
To continue with our polar express theme I thought it would be fun to paint with toy trains. You can pretend that this O pattern is like an oval track and have the trains run on the track.

Print out the Bible memory verse coloring sheet and have your children color the picture. Sit with
your children while they are coloring and talk about what they see in the picture (see questions below if
you’d like some ideas).
Questions to ask if you like:
• How many animals do you see? (Two)
• What kinds of animals do you see? (Lions)
• Is there a person in this picture? (Yes)
• Do you think the person is a man or a woman? (A man)
• What does it look like the man is doing? (Looking up and praying. Some children may not
notice that he's praying but that is okay.)
• Do both of the lions have their mouths open? (No one is open and one is closed)
• Do you think the man will get hurt by the lions? (Accept all answers)
This is a perfect time to talk about the Bible and how to use it. You can show the children your Bible so
they have a better understanding of what a book, chapter and verse are. You can say: “The Bible is one
big book made up of many smaller books. Each book has a name. Today we are learning a Bible verse in
the book of Isaiah. When you find Isaiah. in the new testament look for the number 41 at the top left or
right of the page, this is the chapter. You will see Isaiah. We are looking for verse 10, and those numbers
are much smaller under the big 41.”
After looking at the Bible show them “Isaiah 41:10” written out on their Memory Verse Coloring Sheet. To
see and hear all of the Books that make up the Bible watch this fun, short video, The Books of the Bible,
by Readeez!
After they are done coloring they can hang their Memory Verse Coloring Sheet up in a special place.
Then when your child walks by the sheet they can work on memorizing the Bible verse
In the story The Polar Express there are reindeer that are pulling Santa’s sleigh and the bell was cut from one of the reindeer's harness. For art today we are going to make a reindeer.
