Okay, this chart probably isn't self explanatory to anyone but me—all the memories are still vivid!

Just a few notes: My favorite craft was the one for Adam and Eve

The game for Cain & Abel involved "killing" partners by grabbing a piece of heart-shaped candy taped to their backs. None of the kids got the idea. Total flop. Any other good ideas for a Cain & Abel game?

I can't remember what we studied for the Tower of Babel or why I would have chosen II Chr. 16. Ideas, anyone? I cheated on a craft that day, too. I found these great rainbow crafts online after we'd already done our little arkettes, so it was sort of a review craft. But everyone really liked it. (Sorry, no picture handy)

After this survey of Genesis, it was Christmas, so we started with that and our next unit was on the life of Christ. Next post!
