Aim

To begin to understand the significance of the Flood narrative.

Lesson

Begin by discussing with children about what happens when they make a mess of their work.

Talk about making a fresh start. Tell the children that God made a fresh start with his Creation.

Share with children story of the Flood (Genesis 6:9 to 9:17).

• What promise did God make at the end of the story?
• With whom did He make it?

Activity

Children could sing a song about Noah and/or paint a rainbow.
