David and Goliath

DAVID Hey parents! Use these questions as a guide to talk over this week’s lesson, David, with your child after they’ve listened to the story! Who was today's Bible story about? David. David loved God and God loved him.. David saw a giant, Goliath. He was rude and very tall. Who is the tallest person you’ve ever seen? Show me with your arms how tall. Wow, that is so tall! But Goliath was even taller. Was David afraid of Goliath? No not at all. Show me your face when you feel afraid. Now show me your face your face when you are brave! David prayed to God because he loved him. We can pray to God and love him, too. Take some time to pray with your toddler. Encourage them to sit with you and fold their hands, saying something like: God, thank you for making us and wanting to be our friend. Thank you for loving us, just like you loved David! We love you!
