Each Sunday school lesson includes printable illustrated story pictures, pictures to color, fun crafts for preschool children, and fun activities to keep children engaged and excited to learn! The lessons are: Lesson 1 - I Can Join God's Army!, Lesson 2 - Can Go To Training Camp!, Lesson 3 - Keep Your Focus!, Lesson 4 - Serve Cheerfully!, Lesson 5 - Love Fellow Soldiers!, Lesson 6 - New Recruits! Below you can view lots of thumbnail-sized pictures of the printable pages for the lessons.

We have also provided links to websites that have additional supplies that you may want to use for teaching and activities, such as kid's camouflage clothing, kids' army fatigues and helmets, camouflage teddy bears, camouflage party supplies, and camouflage craft paper for crafts. These websites are not affiliated with us in any way. They are just provided to save you some time searching for supplies you might want to use with our lessons, crafts and activities for this theme.

 
Sunday school Lesson 1 - I Can Join God's Army! The first lesson in the series teaches how we can "Join" God's army. The children learn that God is our great commander; and that he is a kind commander. Because of his gentleness, kindness and forgiveness, we don't have to be afraid to do the things he asks us. We can just follow. It is demonstrated, with a children's activity, that if a soldier tries to go it alone, he ends up carrying a heavy load of guilt, fear and worry. They also learn that when they are afraid, Jesus is our advocate who helps us when we are weak. During Circle Talk Time, it is explained, in simple terms, what it means to let God be your leader and join God's army; and that God has great things planned for each of us. There is a model prayer for all the children, and another prayer for those who want to accept Jesus into their heart. For activities, children have a chance to sign up to join God's army. Other activities include a pretend play activity, rhyme with actions, and a second activity to drive the lesson concepts home. The Key Concepts are: We show love to God by letting him be our leader and giving him our heart. God is a kind commander. We can trust our commander completely! The Bible verses used for this lesson include : Jer. 29:11 and Psalms 18:29-34.
Sunday school Lesson 2 - Training Camp! - Children to training camp in God's army! Children learn that soldier do many exercises to get stronger; and learn different exercises to make their faith stronger. Children learn the importance of reading their bible (or having someone read to them), worshipping, spending time with God in prayer, and going to different church activities to help their faith grow. The activities drive these concepts home by giving each child a Workout Journal to help them design their own workout to make their faith grow strong! Other activities include a pretend play activity, a rhyme with actions, and an activity with army men toys. There are pictures of soldiers on each page to color. During Circle Talk Time children are encouraged with simple verses of God's love, protection and help he offers us. Crafts include Army Bear puppet, and a craft that has a moveable shield that protects the children like God protects us. Concepts Children Learn: A soldier in God's Army trains hard by staying close to God, reading his Bible, praying, and obeying him. I don't have to be strong; my commander makes me strong, protects me and helps me! The verses used in the lesson are: Job 23:12; 1 Timothy 4:7-8; James 4:8a; Psalms 18:29b, 30, 32, 34. There is a simplified separate lesson for ages two and three.
Sunday school Lesson 3 - Keep Your Focus! - This practical, fun lesson teaches children these important concepts: When we keep clean on the inside, God can use us for special purposes. To keep clean, we can be careful how we live. We are to set a good example for others to copy. The verses used in lesson are: Proverbs 20:11; 2 Tim. 2:20-22; Hebrews 12:2; 2 Tim. 2:4. This lesson gives practical examples of how we can watch what we see, hear and say to keep clean on the inside. For Circle Talk Time, we use an object lesson to show children how to be a good example for others to copy. Activities to go with this lesson include a game, a preschool rhyme with actions and a group activity. For crafts, children make a paper doll chain that says, "I can be a good example for others to copy." The other craft is a doll that opens to show a clean heart and says, 'Its o.k. to get dirty sometimes, but our Bibles tell us to be clean on the inside." As with all of the lessons, there is a separate easy lesson especially for toddlers.
Sunday school Lesson 4 - Serve Cheerfully! The concepts taught in this lesson include: God gives us special abilities so that we can be really good at doing some jobs. God gives us everything you need to do our jobs well. When we use our abilities to help others, and share with others, God will give us rewards in heaven. This lesson encourages children by emphasizing that God didn't leave anybody out...he gave us each special abilities. And it gives them ways they can begin using their abilities even at their young age. It also helps children begin to focus on what's to come - rewards in heaven! The Circle Talk Time uses an object lesson to show children what that means. There is a warm-up activity, two pretend play activities and a rhyme with actions to go with this lesson. There is a sticker craft using the Bible reference of Ephesians 6:8 that tells us that the Lord will reward us for the good things we do. Also, children make a booklet with stickers about their abilities God gave them. The other verse used in this lesson is Romans 12:6-8.
Sunday school Lesson 5 - The concepts taught in this lesson include: God wants us to do everything with love. There are things we can "put on" to show love to others. Love is what joins our hearts together. The verses used in this lesson are: 1 John 4:21 and 1 John 4:19. This fun lesson shows children first hand the "clothes" we have to "put on", based on Colossians 3:12-15 (love, mercy, kindness, humility, patience, gentleness, and forgiveness). It explains each one in kid-friendly language. Circle Talk Time explains how our hearts can be "joined together in love". There is a warm-up activity, pretend play activity, song with actions and a group bulletin board activity. The crafts for this lesson include a bear-shaped booklet and paper dolls with the "clothes" they learned to put on in the lesson.
Sunday school Lesson 6 - New Recruits! Children learn these concepts in this lesson: God shares his Top Secrets with us. The special mission he gives us is to to tell others about him. He will help us as we do our special mission. The most important thing is to love others. Children learn about God's Top Secrets and about what our special mission is as soldiers in God's army (to go and tell others). Circle Talk Time discusses some practical ways children can tell others about Jesus. Scriptures used in this lesson are: Mark 16:15; 1 Cor. 4:1; Matthew 28:20; John 13:34-35.
