Everyday object lessons

I will have a 2 pieces of paper. We will be drawing 2 houses. One will be drawn with permanent markers and the other will be drawn with water-soluble. We will read the story from two different sections, Matthew 5:24-27 and Luke 6: 46-48. They both offer some interesting insights. As we draw and fill in the houses, we will talk about the symbolism of the different parts, the foundation, the rock, the sand, the house, the floods and rain and the great fall of the house. Each boy will get a chance to draw something onto the picture.

We will take the pictures outside or someplace where it won’t make too much of a mess and then spray the pictures with a water gun or squirt bottle to represent the floods and rain. Of course the water soluble pix will run off the paper. The permanent marker will not be ruined.
