My Little Creators

Today during our Bible lesson we talked about Adam's role in naming all of the animals. One student told me that if animals didn't have names then we would have to hold up a picture when we are talking about them. That would not work. I am so grateful that God gave Adam this job, and I am in awe of the amazing creatures that God created.

My great first graders' minds went to work on what they would create as a brand new animal. I found them quite intriguing. It was cool to me how I could see a little bit of God's original designs sneak their way into their new animals.

Please bear with me as I learn the new settings on my camera. I know these are a little bit dark.

This student was very excited about the laser eyeballs.

The Herubrin.

Another species of a snake, except with rainbow colors.

The Cartwheeler. An unbelievable creation that sucks water
in it's appendiges, and spits it out the mouth. This student
was very proud!

The Swilsga. How can we forget the animal with two heads?!

The Cot. What I love most about this bird is
that it is saying:I love God. And it is blue and
purple which means that it is female.
That's what its creator told me.

This just scratches the surface of the plethora of animals that my students created today. What a fun activity!
