Help children understand how Jesus takes away sin and helps His light shine through us with this interactive “Shine for Jesus” Pumpkin Card Craft.
Children decorate the pumpkin, glue pumpkin seeds or other “yucky stuff” onto the inside section, and then fold the card so the mess disappears behind the smiling jack-o’-lantern. The simple visual reinforces the message:
“Jesus takes the yucky stuff away so our light shines all night and day!”
This printable works especially well for Sunday school, children’s church, Christian classrooms, homeschool Bible lessons, fall festivals, and Halloween-alternative activities. The finished card gives children a hands-on way to remember the lesson while also creating something they can take home and share with their families.
The printable pattern is designed for legal-size, 8 1/2″ x 14″ paper and includes the folding card pattern with the pumpkin design, poem, and area for adding the “yucky stuff.”
Supplies you may need: legal-size paper, dried pumpkin seeds, yarn, construction paper, crayons or colored pencils, and glue.
All the patterns, games, and lessons in this store come from Danielle’s Place and are available through a yearly membership on The Resource Room.
