Noah Ark lesson for 3 year old preschool sunday school class?

I am teaching my daughters 3 year old sunday school class. This sunday they are learning about Noah Ark. Any ideas of what I can bring for the kids or what I can do with them.

    If you have a good story in your lesson to read to the kids, just act it out as you go. Pretend to help Noah build the Ark. Bring play tools for the kids if you have them, or they can just pretend to saw the wood, hammer it together, paint tar or something on the outside to help make it more waterproof, etc.

    Next you could make paper bag puppet animals (find some cute cartoon animal heads online that you can cut out and let them color and then glue on bags to make puppets. Make pairs of animals so there are 2 kids with the same animal. Then you can play a game where they find their matching animal pair. You can all work together to "gather the animals" and help lead them onto the "Ark" that you built. (Maybe make a circle of chairs where the Ark is or something.)

    Finally, once you, the kids, and all the animals are safely on the Ark you can have them help you shut the HEAVY door and all pretend to make rain and storm noises. If you have another teacher to help you, maybe she could flash the lights for some lightning! Then you can all pray together and thank God for all his help building the ark and gathering the animals, and for keeping us safe and guiding us in our lives just as He helped Noah and his family.

    Anyway, those are a few ideas. I teach a three and four year old class on Wednesday nights and they LOVE to act out the Bible stories. It’s always really fun! For a snack you could do some kind of rainbow theme – although I don’t have a specific idea for that right at the moment! Have fun!
