Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties;
And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24

Creation in the Bath

 On Sunday, both Ryn and Jacob were too sick to go to church.  I was determined to use the time wisely and do some sort of Bible lesson.  I decided to focus on the creation story and we started watching a few creation songs on YouTube.  As the kids were leaking greatly from their noses, and I didn't find a video that I really loved, I decided to throw them in the bath and create each day.  They really enjoyed the hour long bath, getting a few more pieces of God's creation a little at a time.  I am documenting each day here to use for review...and for when I do it again!

Day 1- Light and Dark
We turned off the lights and I had the kids say, "Let there be light!"... And turned them on.
(I wrote the number on the tile with a washable marker)

Day 2- Water and Sky
We added blue to the bath and stuck cotton balls on the walls.

 Day 3-Land, Plants, Trees
We used a tub lid for our land and toys (including fruit) for vegetation


 Day 4- Sun and Moon...and stars on the wall

Day 5- Animals of the air and the sea




Day 6- Land animals...
 ...and Adam and Eve (they are pointing at each other)


 Day 7- He rested.
