Baptism and Counting Fun!

Introduction

Welcome, little friends! Today, we're going to explore a very special celebration called Baptism. Just like how we celebrate our birthdays, Baptism is a joyful day when families come together to welcome a new member into their faith community.

Let's Get Started

Storytime!

Gather around as we read a short story about a little boy named Ben. Ben is very excited because today is his Baptism day!

Once upon a time, Ben woke up early on the morning of his Baptism. He was dressed in a beautiful white outfit that sparkled like stars! His family prepared a special cake and invited all their friends.

"How many friends will come to celebrate with us?" asked Ben. His mother replied, “Let’s count together!”

Counting with Ben!

Now, it's your turn! Let's join Ben and count the friends who are coming to his Baptism. Here are some pictures of friends you might see:

Question Time

  1. How many friends did we count? (Let's count them together!)
  2. Can you raise your hand if you can see a friend in the room today?

(Encourage the children to count the friends together and use their fingers to show the numbers!)

Fun Activity: Baptism Bubbles!

Now that we have counted our friends, let’s get crafty! We are going to blow bubbles just like the water used during Baptism.

Materials Needed

Instructions

  1. Each of you will take a turn to blow bubbles.
  2. While blowing bubbles, let’s practice counting them. How many bubbles can you blow?
  3. Afterward, draw a picture of Ben and his friends celebrating at the Baptism!

Conclusion

What's amazing about Baptism is the love and joy shared among family and friends, just like we shared in counting and creating today!

Make sure to remind everyone how special it is to welcome new friends and celebrate together, not just in Baptism but every day!

Now, let’s finish our lesson with a fun song about friendship and togetherness. Are you ready to sing? 🎶


I hope you enjoyed our adventure in counting and celebrating Baptism!
