Power of Procreation
Opening Song: I am a child of God Childrens Songbook #2
Opening Prayer: Child
Lesson: Mum
This lesson was inspired when our 5 year old asked how did she start/become a baby in mummies tummy and how did she grow
We scoured Youtube to find a 'stages of growth of a baby' (fetal development) video we felt was family suitable. There are many around, find one you feel comfortable with.
After viewing a few of them (kids totally loved it! and wanted more) and answering any questions (enjoy!! ;) they had we then had a sit down little more serious talk about:
*Having babies is a miracle and extreme blessing.
We have only had it happen FOUR times in our family!
*One must wait till after marriage to use this very special ability God has given us
*Families are very important and every child deserves to be blessed with a mother father and siblings if possible
*The process of making babies is a wonderful thing but one that must be treated with respect and love at the right time.
Activity:
Look through some of your family photo albums of the children as babies and even mum and dad and other relatives if you have them available.
