Learn about 4 different kinds of boats. Click here for a list of different types of boats. I just chose 4 different types of boats to learn about but if you’d like to learn about more or different ones feel free to do so. You can click here for the pictures of the boats and the information for each one. You can print out the pictures, show the children the pictures and read the information. Allow children to share their insights on the boats. Talk about the colors of the boats, the size of the boats ask them questions about what they think the jobs of the boats are.

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). Your discussion will lead into The Visitors story from Day 1.

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 Genesis. When you find Genesis in the new testament look for the number 18 at the top left or right of the page, this is the chapter. You will see Genesis 18. We are looking for verse 4, and those numbers are much smaller un- der the big 18.”
After looking at the Bible show them “Genesis 18:4” written out on their Memory Verse Col-oring 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.

Tear a piece of foil for your child and have them fold it about three times. Next, have your child make sides on the boat by rising up the edges of the foil. Once all the sides are made have your child put the boat in the water. Next, you are going to have your child take an object; whatever you have around the house, maybe use coins. Put the coins in the boat one at a time and count how many coins you can put in the boat before it starts to sink. Have your child count out how many items it takes to sink the boat. To extend this activity make a chart to document your findings. Ask your child to make predictions on how many coins it will take to sink the boat. You or your child will chart the different objects used to sink the boat and how many of that object it took to sink the boat.
