What Should I Do When I Sin?
Kids using the D6 curriculum learned how God kept His promise and brought His people back from exile in Babylon to their homeland. What a great day when God turned their sadness to joy! They sinned and went away from God, but He forgave them and helped them return.
Tell about a time when you sinned (even sharing the consequences you suffered if it is appropriate). Share how God forgave you and helped you. Everyone sins and kids need to learn what to do when they sin. Read 1 John 1:9

Let's Bake Cookies!
Gather ingredients to make cookies. Let the kids taste the individual ingredients (salt, baking soda, butter, flour, etc.) before mixing them together. Ask how each one tastes.
Mix and bake the cookies. Eat the cookies with some cold milk. Ask how they liked them.
Ask: What are some things in life that aren't good? (Sickness, sadness, hurt feelings, loneliness, etc.)
These things don't "taste " good! BUT God can take those bad things and make something good out of them (like you did with the cookies). God is so powerful He can make something good out of bad.

"New"
Items needed: things from the recycling bin—cereal boxes, paper towel rolls, ribbon, bottles, construction paper, etc.
Glue and scissors
Make something "new" from the salvaged items.
Read James 1:3-4
Ask:
What comes from trials? (Patience)
What is the end result? (It will make you mature and complete.)
