As we ask God to ‘Teach us His paths’ in Psalm 25, we also must learn to follow them. This activity and craft plays with the idea of leading down pathways by using a small magnet.

To make this craft, you will need the 1-page template printout, scissors, a paperclip, or split pin (brad), glue or tape, and a fridge magnet. If possible, print on a thin card or back onto a thicker card.

Back onto card, if you didn’t print on card, then cut out the map and person.

If using a paperclip – bend the paperclip open so it’s at a right angle.

Add glue to the paperclip (or split pin) and attach the person. Alternatively, use a small piece of sticky tape.

Place the person upright at one end of the path and the magnet below.

Worth noting: The spilt pin is slightly easier to direct exactly than the paperclip.

Psalm 25 talks about God leading us, revealing the paths he intended for us. This simple activity gets your youngsters to think about pathways, journeys and how one-step leads to the next. Use it as a springboard, in place of a game slot, or as a craft that the youngsters can decorate and take home.

To make this craft, you will need the 1-page template printout and scissors.
If possible, print on thin card or back onto a thicker decorative material like scrapbooking paper.

These will print fine in black and white, so I’ve only included the colour template.

Cut out all the dominoes.

Mix the set or sets (they are small sets, so doubling up works well). Lay one tile at a time, matching a footprint and making a path across the table.
