Craft: The Baker
Make a baker out of a paper bag to remind the children of the story this week. This craft would be better for younger kids but is a little involved so more like 2nd and 3rd grade.

Craft: Bubble Wrap Sheep
This is a cute craft to make a sheep to go with the memory verse. You could make the sheep like the website says and then either write the memory verse on the back or maybe put a magnet on the back.

Game: Out of the Pit (Jail)
The instructions are on the JPG below. I would suggest if you have a bigger class have two of this game going at the same time. Also be very careful with how high the pit/jail gets.
