10. Passover Matzah covers (Jewish)

This is a project that grows with the age of the children. Preschoolers can decorate squares of cloth with felt shapes and letters while elementary school children can use washable paints and markers to create original designs. Middle and high school-age kids can use tie-dye, embroidery or fabric paints to turn their covers into works of art.

9. Draw-the-Scripture books (All)

A simple notebook or some blank pages stapled or sewn together can form a book in which the children draw their version of the week’s scripture story. Let the children decorate the covers with stickers or drawings. At the end of the school year, the book will become a keepsake for the children to take home and look through again and again.

8. Christmas trees for the birds (Christian)

Sharing the joy of Christmas with animals is something most children love. Even young children can string fruit-colored cereal on brightly colored yarn to make colorful Christmas tree decorations that are perfect for decorating bushes and low trees around the church. Then the birds and other animals can share in the Christmas celebration. Older children can add to the feast with pine cones covered in peanut butter then rolled in birdseed.

7. Five times a day (Muslim)

For children, especially little ones just learning about time, understanding the five daily prayer times in Islam can be difficult. Letting children create a comic strip with characters doing or seeing something that happens at the same time as each prayer is a good Muslim Sunday School craft. Start with a sheet of paper with five large squares on it. Preschoolers could choose from pre-printed pictures and glue one in each square. Older children could draw their own reminders into each square.

6. The creation story (All)

Get children involved in the creation story with a collage representing the days of creation. Divide large pieces of paper into 7 sections. Let children use magazines and newspapers to find pictures that represent what God created each day. For the seventh day, have them find pictures that show reverent Sabbath activities.

Make 10 commandment mobiles from large round price tags, popsicle sticks, and yarn. Have the children write the number on one side of each tag, and a short version of each commandment on the other side (for instance, “Don’t steal” or “Don’t kill”). Let them decorate their art with stickers, glitter, or markers.
