Children's church lesson: King Solomon


Story
Say: Today we are going to talk about wisdom.  Having wisdom means that someone is able to make good choices.  The bible tells the story of the wises person ever, King Solomon.   
Read the story of King Solomon from any children's story bible.

Lesson
Say: In today’s story we met a very wise person didn’t we?  What did Solomon as God to give him? (To be wise)  What wise choices did Solomon make in today’s story?  (Figured out how to find how who was really the mother and he built a house/temple for God)  Why did Solomon build a temple for God (So there would be a place to worship God)
The story of Solomon teaches us that wisdom, the ability to make good choices, comes from God.  What are some ways God gives us wisdom (going to church, reading the bible, adults).  Those are all great answers!  God helps us make good choices through His words in the bible, through what we learn at church and from our parents and other adults who teach us how to make good choices.  

Craft
Have the children color/decorate a paper crown.
