The story of Creation is a familiar story that many churches do over and over. This is good, except, we may run out of things to do with the story.
Singing is always a great activity for children. It gets them directly involved, moving, and thinking about what they are singing. This is what the “7 Days of Creation” song is for. I was thinking of Christmas and the song, “The 12 Days of Christmas”, popped in my mind. Then I thought, what about the days of Creation? There’s only 7 days in Creation, but the tune still works, it just ends earlier.
I hope you and your kids enjoy this little song to help with learning the days of Creation. This would be an ideal preschool Bible song, but would be fun for any age of children.
