Jesus
Comes to Jerusalem as King For kids ages 2-8
Memory
Verse: "I will praise you as long as I
live, and in your name I will lift up my hands." Psalm 63:4 NIV
11 As they all approached
Jerusalem, they came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives. Jesus
sent out two of his disciples. 2 He said to them, “Go to the
village ahead of you. Just as you enter it, you will find a donkey’s colt tied
there. No one has ever ridden it. Untie it and bring it here. 3 Someone
may ask you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ If so, say, ‘The Lord needs it. But he
will send it back here soon.’ ”
4 So they left. They found a colt out in the street. It was
tied at a doorway. They untied it. 5 Some people standing there
asked, “What are you doing? Why are you untying that colt?” 6 They
answered as Jesus had told them to. So the people let them go. 7 They
brought the colt to Jesus. They threw their coats over it. Then he sat on it. 8 Many
people spread their coats on the road. Others spread branches they had cut in
the fields. 9 Those in front and those in back
shouted,“Hosanna!”“Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!” (Psalm 118:25,26)10 “Blessed
is the coming kingdom of our father David!”“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
For this lessons craft we made praise branches by
tracing our hands in green construction paper then cutting and pasting them on
a Popsicle stick. We also did a craft from oriental trading as well as some
leis they sold there.
