We are all a part of some family, whether it is a family with parents and children, a family with a spouse, a larger extended family or God’s family of believers. In the Bible, there were many different types of families. Some obeyed God, while others did not. Yet they are all important because we can learn from them how to live as a family and as Christians. God has a purpose for each family. As a teacher, you have the awesome responsibility of introducing your students to how God uses families in the Bible and in today’s lives. Four-and five-year-old children are just becoming aware of relationships within their own family. The activities in Favorite Bible Families for Ages 4 and 5 are designed for identifying roles in families, explaining God’s plan for families and instructing children about the consequences of obeying and disobeying God.
