“God does not show favoritism but accepts people from every nation.” (NIV)
This card is for the story of the Tower of Babel. Though this memory verse is not from the Genesis chapter it emphasises the fact that God accepts all people. The class that this card was created for has children from many places in the world, predominantly Pacific Islanders. The church is close to a college campus with families having recently arrived from their home country. I thought it would be nice for the children to write “Hello” in their mother tongue, and share that with their classmates. This helps to make the Babel story come to life. On the inside, I included a picture to color from “The Children’s Bulletins” website, which I subscribe to. The link is included in front of the picture. You can include a related picture, or the text from Genesis 11:1-9, or have the children draw a picture about the story.
these pictures can be found at https://www.childrensbulletins.com/ under Genesis 11, age 3+
