This little light of mine

This is a cute little craft we did this week to go along with the song this little light of mine. This song is one of the students favorite (I work at a private school). Here are the materials I used.

• Cups for the Dollar Store
• Little lights from Party City (normally $20 for 20 but I had a half off coupon, sometimes the Dollar tree has them.)
• Tissue paper
• Glue

I had the students glue on cut pieces of tissue paper and then we took our craft into the bathroom where we could get it completely dark. They loved it! I talked about how sometimes the world is dark and sinful, but God gives each of us a light to make the world a prettier and happier place to live. My kindergartners are beginning to get this concept, we always talk about ways to shine our lights. One student even prayed "Father, thank you from my friends, and teachers. Please help us shine or lights today for everyone. Thank you for forgiving our sins." It was pretty precious! Here is a picture of a students completed cup.

This is a super easy and fun craft that my students loved!
