The Lost Coin - Parable of Jesus Sunday School Activity

Parables of Jesus are earthly lessons with heavenly meanings. These lessons not only helped those Jesus was talking to at the time, they can help us on a daily basis.

To go along with the parable about the lost coin, we've come up with a couple of activities for you to do with your Sunday school class.

You can find the parable about the lost coin in Luke 15.

Sunday School Activities

In this first activity, you'll only need three things:

• coins
• white copy paper
• crayons/pencils

Each child will need one sheet of paper. Let each child place a coin under the sheet of paper. Let them use the crayon or pencil to make a stencil of the coin by rubbing the crayon over the coin until you can see the coin design on the paper. On the top of the paper, let the kids write:

The Lost Coin

Luke 15

The kids can take this home as a reminder of how we are to look for that lost person we can tell about our Lord and savior.

 

 

In the second activity, you will need either a real coin or a paper coin you've drawn or printed out. Have the kids close their eyes while you hide the coin in the room. Once you've hidden the coin, tell the kids to find the 'lost' coin.

 

Whichever child finds the coin, let them hide the coin the next time. Continue playing until every child has a chance to hide the coin.
