A huge thanks to Experience Early Learning (formerly Mother Goose Time) for providing us with their Experience Preschool curriculum for free in exchange for sharing our honest and authentic stories resulting from our personal experiences. It’s been such a huge blessing to us! As always, my opinions on awesome stuff for little kids are 100% my own.

Keep in mind that all preschoolers do things in their own time and on their own terms. What one is ready for, another might not be. Please use your best mama judgement when planning activities for your little kids.

And you know what? They’ve obviously thought of everything because they offer a Christian supplement too! Did I mention that we’re kinda in love with it? I’m sure that isn’t exactly a surprise, though.

What gifts have you received? What gifts do you think the Holy Spirit gives you? 

The seven gifts from the Holy Spirit are wisdom, understanding, counsel, knowledge, fortitude, piety, and fear of the Lord. Our curriculum shares an activity for each, but today we’re focusing on knowledge. 

It was much easier for baby girl to work with the blocks than it was the ball, so we spent quite a bit of time exploring action/reaction scenarios with her sensory blocks.

Knowledge Activity for Little Kids

What you’ll need

  • Ball
  • Blocks

Here’s how to do it

Ask: What do you think happens if you throw a ball up in the sky? 

  • Explain that everything we do has a consequence. When we do something kind, it makes a person feel encouraged and happy. If we do something mean, it makes a person sad or lonely. 
  • Take turns tossing a ball and catching it as it falls down. 
  • Explore other action/reaction scenarios. For example, a tower of blocks and take it off the top block. What happens? Now take out the middle block. What happens?
  • When God is in charge of our lives, everything has purpose. If we decide to ignore God and his desire for us, it is like removing a block from the middle of the tower – it can make our lives fall apart. 

Explain: With the gift of knowledge, we understand the meaning of God, his plan for each of us and the consequences of our actions.
