Just a note to let you know how much we’re looking forward to our next six Dwell sessions. The unit we’re studying is called “Imagine . . . God Creating Everything,” and each week we’ll be diving into a different part of God’s creation story. In addition to experiencing the awe and wonder that come from considering the wonderful world our God has made, we’ll be using every chance we get to respond with songs, prayers, praise, and thankfulness.
Speaking of songs, the Scripture we’ll be memorizing for this unit (Genesis 1: 1, 31a) has been set to music to help us learn it together. If you’d like to listen to the song or download it, go to the leader support page of DwellCurriculum.org and look for the song title “It Was Very Good.” The other song we’ll be learning is also a great one to sing with your child at home. It’s called “Thank You, Lord, for Making Me,” and you’ll also find it on the Dwell site.
Talk with your child about creation—your favorite animals, places, fruits, flowers, vegetables, and more—and look for ways you and your family can take care of God’s world. You’ll find the stories we’re learning each week on the Show and Share paper your child brings home. Encourage your child to “show and share” it with you!
