Fun Creation Story Activities For Kids
I don’t know about you, but I’m always on the hunt for new ideas to teach my two girls, Ella and Ruthie, about God. I know that teaching my children about the Bible is one of the most important things I do, period.

We recently worked on some fun activities to learn about the Creation story - how God created the Earth in seven days. Ella (5) loves to color and create, so choosing these activities was pretty much a no-brainer!
Our Storybook Bible
Whenever we are learning about a new Bible story, I first pull out our favorite storybook Bible. We have this one and we love it. We read about the story of Creation and how God created the world.
Days of Creation Mini-Book
Next, I printed the black and white version of the mini-book from my printable pack, and Ella and I colored it together and put it together. We read the story and talked about each day.
Creation Wheel Craft
The next activity we did together was the wheel craft. Again, I decided to print the black and white version, because I figured it was more fun for Ella to get to color. She loved spinning the wheel and retelling the story that way!
Creation Sequencing Activity
After that, I printed the cut-and-paste sequencing activity for Ella to work on. She colored, cut out the pictures, and pasted them in order. She was able to do this pretty independently since we had talked about the story so much already!
(There’s also a sequencing activity in worksheet form in this set, but that would be a bit above Ella’s head. It’s important to know your kiddo and do what works for them!)
Days of Creation Matching Game
Finally, we played the Days of Creation matching game. I printed this one in color just for something different, and we glued each cut out card to construction paper so we couldn’t see through the paper. We laid the cards out face down and took turns picking two cards, looking for matches. This was really fun (we laughed a lot) and was a perfect review to our whole Days of Creation “unit”!

Teaching our children about God and the Bible truly is one of the most important things we can do as mothers (or fathers, or grandparents, or teachers). And as a blogger, I’m so thankful to get to share a few small ways I do that in our home!
