| Sabbath activities for Children |
Series A-2, Ages 7-12
Copyright 2001 by Sharon L. White
Note to parents:
The following activities are designed to teach, entertain
and strengthen the hearts of young children. They should
be printed out and will provide a wonderful resource for
A Sabbath morning or afternoon.
Children will need some guidance and instruction to go
along with the text. For younger children, who tire easily,
it is best to do a little at a time. Perhaps a few pages in
the morning and then some more in the afternoon.
There is an easy word search for the younger children and a
harder search that the whole family can work on.
The harder search can also be done by an older child,
providing a great challenge.
Enjoy! And may our Holy Sabbaths, that our great and
joyous Elohim (God) has given to us, be a blessing.
Shalom,

James 4:14 and 17
“Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.
For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that
appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. . .
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not,
to him it is sin.”
__________________________________________
Elohim (God) tells us that we don't KNOW what will happen tomorrow.
Our lives are short and we must be very careful and thankful
for the time we have.
WORK hard! Be DILIGENT!
If you know there is something good and kind you can do . . .
But, instead, you act naughty and DON'T do it, that is a
terrible SIN! Do all the good you can today, because
tomorrow will soon FADE away!
