Honor Your Father & Mother

What parent wouldn't treasure a portrait of themselves drawn by their precious little one? Here's a fun way to teach the 5th Commandment, Honor your father and mother, and create a little keepsake for their parents at the same time!

Materials needed:

  • Template 1 and Template 2 copied onto regular or colored copy paper

  • Before class, use a craft knife or scissor blade to cut out the "doors" on the top paper

  • Crayons or markers

  • Glue sticks

Directions:

  • BEFORE CLASS: As noted above, take a craft knife and cut along the 3 sides of each "door" on the top paper (Template 2).

  • Have the kids draw their moms and dads on the first page (Template 1).

  • Put glue on this page everywhere EXCEPT the two boxes with their drawings.

  • Line up the top sheet with the bottom so that Mom and Dad show through the windows. Fold back the doors so they're easier to open and close.
