Five Days in Creation for Parents and KidsSample
Today: Climb a hill so that you can enjoy a view of the land below.
Say something like:
Look at the big world below us—and that’s only a little bit of God’s great big creation! God created all of it. What do you see that God created? (Ask your little one to name everything within view: grass, trees, houses, animals, lights, cars, etc.)
What’s really exciting, though, is that God didn’t just create this for Himself. He made us to share in His joy, too! The song of creation should be the song of our hearts, praising God with every chance we get.
Let’s always be thankful for the unique day God gives us. We must not hold back the praise that is bursting from our hearts!
Every new day is a gift, a joyous celebration of God’s great love.
Let’s make up a special song together that we can sing when we feel happy about God. (Work together on a short song to enjoy with your family.)
Pray: Ask God to give you and your little one hearts that are joyful about Him and His creation.

About this Plan
Each day, take a walk with your little one to a different destination in creation and hear the unique songs of joy that praise God there. Using five different Psalms, you’ll explore the delight of the sun, moon, stars, earth, sky, water, and animals. You and your child will learn to praise God in a new way during this five-day devotional.
