701019: Seeing The Unseen: Paws & Tales Series, Video Seeing The Unseen: Paws & Tales Series, Video
By Wesscott Marketing

From Chuck Swindoll and Insight for Living, comes a wild adventure full of fun, laughter, and learning for the whole family! Using cutting-edge 3D animation, Providential Pictures is proud to present Paws & Tales The Animated Series.

A camping trip on Wild Mountain becomes a life changing experience for the Club and their new friend, Wally. Surrounded by the beauty of the mountainside, C.J. is surprised when Wally admits that he doesn't believe in anything he can't see - including God. With the help of Paw Paw Chuck and the others, C.J. tries to figure out how we can "see the unseen."

Join the cast of loveable characters from the popular radio series in their first animated video and get ready for a fun-filled, action-packed adventure that will help your cubs discover how we can all know for certain that God is very real! 30 minutes. Closed-captioned.

For reinforcement, hold another single object and ask the children to count it.  Say, "Yes, there is ONE ______ in
my hand."  Then ask how many real schoolbusses are parked in the circle area.  Say, "Zero! Right!"   Show the
number 0 again and repeat with the children "ZERO."  Show the number 1 again and repeat "ONE" together.  Ask
the children to clap 1 time while you all say "ONE" together.  Then ask everyone to clap 0 times while you say
"ZERO."  This is sure to catch some out and cause lots of giggles!    


Next, explain to the children that in today's lesson we will learn about things that are there, but that we can not
see.  Ask if anyone has seen air.  You might get responses such as, "I saw the air when a tree blew in the wind."  
Explain that seeing the tree move was only the result of the air, or fast-moving air called "wind," blowing against
it.  Say that we can put our hands through it, throw a ball through it, make it move faster by blowing it or waving
something around, but we can't actually see air, only what air does.  Take a feather and place it on your hand
and blow it off with a puff of air.  Ask the children, "Did you see the air, or did you see the feather move because
of the movement of air?"

Show video:
 "Seeing the Unseen" from the Paws & Tales series by Chuck Swindoll.
Fluffy, Airy Snack Time!
Have a fluffy, airy snack to demonstrate how having
air incorporated into a mixture makes it "lighter."  Try
marshmallow fluff topped over angel food cake.  
Make up some strawberry flavored gelatin (Jell-o)
and pour it over the angel food cake.  Chill for
several hours, then let the children spoon the
marshmallow fluff over their serving when ready.  
Discuss what makes the marshmallow fluff "fluffier"
than regular marshmallows (the whipping of air into
the mixture.)  In Australia or some other countries
not familiar with marshmallow fluff or angel food
cake, try using whipping cream over lamingtons or
sponge cake.
Balloon Volly
Let children try to keep
balloons aloft by
tapping them into the
air.  When they are
confidently keeping
their balloons up, let
them take turns batting
them to each other.
Cotton ball Race
Let pairs of children "race"
each other by using a drinking
straw to blow a cotton ball
down the length of a long
table.  Keep a close eye on
the children to make sure they
do not blow so hard they get
light-headed!
Discovery Table
Lay out several lightweight items on a table
for the children to experiment with including
feathers, paperclips, pieces of torn tissue
paper, cotton fluff, etc.  Which objects fall
fastest?  Slowest?
Bible Verse Bracelets:

Psalm 139:7-8

" Where can I go from your Spirit?  Where
can I flee from your presence?  If I go up to
the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed
in the depths,
you are there."  (NIV)

Explain that Jesus is always with us, no matter
where we go in this world.
Bible Song

"My God Is So Big"
by Veggie Tales from the Sing Alongs, Bob and
Larry's Sunday Morning Songs CD.

131745: How Big Is God? How Big Is God?
By Lisa Tawn Bergren / Harpercollins

"Where does God live?" asks a little boy of his mother. "In your heart," she answers, sparking a heartwarming conversation that helps introduce your little ones to the majesty of their heavenly Father! Delightful dialogue and bright, dreamy illustrations capture the wonder of seeing the Creator and his creation through the eyes of a child. Recommended for ages 3 to 7.
Make Beautiful Paper Fans
Give each child a colorful sheet of construction paper.
Demonstrate how to fold the paper to resemble a
hand-held fan.  Help each child until everyone has a fan.
 Let the children decorate their fans with sequins, beads,
bits of lace, colors, stickers, bits of colored tissue, etc.  
Let them use their fans to move air and see how the
moving air affects different objects.
Bible Craft:  Creation Pinwheel
This is a craft available on our sister site
www.LittleBlots.com  Children make a usable pinwheel,
to represent the separation of the waters on the
second day of creation.  This would be a great
optional bible craft for this lesson as children can
move the pinwheel by blowing on it.
Additional Activity:
If you live near a wind farm or windmill, take the
children to see it, and discuss how wind power is
harnessed to provide electricity.  Alternately, watch a
video  that explains this on a level children can
understand.

Morning Circle Time
Introduce the
numbers 0 and 1  (B&W).  Show the
children the number 0.  Ask them if any of the kids can
explain what having zero of something means.  Hold a
single item in your hand (like a necklace, a flower, a
pencil, a toy dinosaur, etc.)  Ask the children whether
they can count how many objects are in your hand.  
When someone says "one," let her know she is correct.  
Then ask the question, "How many live elephants are in
the room with us?"  When the correct answer of "None"
is stated, confirm that there are indeed NO or ZERO live
elephants in the room.  
Music & Movement
Give a colorful scarf to each child and play a
swirling, windy, blustery song of your choice.  
Encourage them to wave their scarves in various
ways while dancing to the song.  

If you have a
parachute, (or even a large sheet,)  
station the children at equal points around its
perimeter and tell them to grasp on tightly.   Teach
them to lift gently and observe how the air moves
under it as they slowly lower the parachute.  Try
various methods of moving the parachute, including
causing it to wave (or undulate) and bouncing
lightweight balls or balloons on top.
