Suggestions for Parents and LeadersBackground InformationThe Sunbeam requirement builds upon the Busy Beeemphasis on Jesus' love and care for us and His plan tosave us from evil. The basic concepts emphasized in thisrequirement are the ugliness of sin and evil and our needof Jesus' forgiveness for, and help in overcoming sin.The coming of Jesus to earth is one of the mostamazing events in the history of the universe. The Son ofGod came as a human being and suffered from the awfuleffects of sin in order to save the very sinner who destroyed His world by disobeying Him. He chose to beborn as a human child to a poor family to show us whatGod is like and what each one of our lives can be like ifwe follow Him. He acted in love toward people byfeeding and healing them and by telling them the excitingnews of His wonderful plan to rescue us from sin andmake us a part of His own kingdom.During His life on earth He demonstrated His love andforgiveness in many ways. He helped Mary Magdalene tounderstand His love and forgiveness and helped herchoose to live as a good and happy person. The paralyticmade himself sick from he bad things he had done, butJesus told him that his sins were forgiven. Jesus gave himstrength to get up and to live a good life. Jesus told thestory of the prodigal son to teach His followers that eventhough we may do many foolish things, He is alwayswaiting and eager to forgive us and help us to live morehappily.The horribleness of sin is shown by the willingness ofthe people to hurt and kill Jesus, the Son of God, in order10to get what they wanted for themselves. His death on thecross gave Him the right to forgive us and showed howmuch He really loves us. When He rose again He showedHis power over death and the life He will bring to all wholove Him when He comes again. (Stories from the classroom or Sabbath School Bible curriculum may be chosen toemphasize these same concepts, if you prefer.)The Bible Story Chart may be used in threedifferent ways:1. Place the pictures on a large wall story chart, addingeach new picture as you tell the story. The childrenmay refer to this chart as they work on their ownchart(s) and as they learn about other stories from theBible and history.2. Provide the children with a practice activity bymaking available a blank chart and the pictures,stories and labels provided on the following pages.The children may set the blank chart on the floor andplace the pictures, stories and labels in order on thechart.3. Children may also color the pictures and use thestories and labels to create their own story charts orstory chart booklets.ReviewReview the major events of earth's history introduced atthe Busy Bee level: creation, sin and sadness begin, Jesuscares for me today, Jesus comes again, and heaven.

My SelfI Am Special1Make a tracing of yourself. Decorate it with pictures and words whichtell good things about yourself.You could write or draw about things you like, things you are good at, things you wish, andthings aboutyour family and friends.19

Suggestions for Parents or Leaders/The tracings can be made in two ways:1. If there is sufficient paper and space, haveeach child lie on a large sheet of butcherpaper while another child traces around hisbody with a watercolor marking pen.2. Tracings may also be done by using a stronglight to project a profile of each child onto apiece of paper that has been taped to the wall.Another child can trace around the shadowwith a pencil./Next, have each child describe himself\herselfusing some of the following ideas. This may bedone together at the teacher's direction, or variousideas may be written on cards for the children towork with individually. Drawings, cutout picturesor written words and phrases may be used.1. Child's name, its meaning, how parentschose it2.

Ideas and Dreamsday dreamsthree wisheswhen I grow up I will be.I believe in.someday I hope.something I want to change about myselfis.in 5-25 years I want to./Emphasize the importance of “internal” characteristics by first putting only physical things on thetracings. Ask whether the children can tell, fromthose things, whether a person would make a goodfriend or neighbor.(See 1 Samuel 16:7)./Display the tracings for children to discuss andenjoy. A picture of Christ and a heading such as“Jesus Made Us Special” may be hung abovethem./Take time to discuss similarities and differenceswith the children to help them learn to accept andappreciate each other for their uniqueness. Discussany prejudices or stereotypes the children mightface, and help them deal with them.

My SelfI Can MakeWise DecisionsPlay the “What-if?” Game.Use words or pictures to show whatyou would choose.If I,I Would.21

Suggestions for Parents or LeadersThe choices we make daily are based upon those thingsthat we consider to be truly valuable. These valuesstrongly influence our feelings and thoughts. Theyinfluence our decisions even though we may be unawareof it. Often people claim to value something very highlybut their actions show that there is a difference betweenwhat they claim to value and what they actually value.One example would be the mother who tells her childthat honesty is a priority but who keeps extra changeaccidentally given her by a grocery store clerk. A drasticexample of this problem is provided by the BiblicalPharisees. They claimed to love God at the same timethey were crucifying Him.Examining the things we value is one of the first stepsin wise decision-making. When faced with a decision,third-grade children can learn to say to themselves.“What is most important to me?” This activity enableschildren to practice decision-making based upon theirdecisions to commit their lives to Jesus.22What-If?/Some problems which the children might considerin the “What-If?” Game include:What if you had R50; how would you spendit?What if you had only one week to live; whatwould you do with it?What if you could choose only three peoplein all the world; which three would youchoose as friends?The children or leader may suggest other problems.The leader may read a story to the children, stopping atthe point where the problem is introduced to discusssolutions./Go over one of the problems listed above with thechildren, modeling how they can make a wisedecision. Encourage them to ask:What does the Bible say about this?Is this just fun for now or will it help melive happily forever?Is this really important to me?/Allow children to work as pairs or individuals onthe problem of their choice. As they present theirsolution to the group, they should use the questionsabove to explain why they think theirsolution is a good one. Allow for group discussionof each solution. There is no one rightanswer.

My FamilyI Have a Family1Ask members of your family to tell some oftheir favorite memories.Our Favorite Memories25

Suggestions for Parents or LeadersEvery family has enjoyed experiences that were extraspecial. These may be times that were particularlyenjoyable or meaningful or that helped them to feel closeto each other. Often families have not considered whichof their activities may be important to other familymembers. Many family members may have experienceswhich they treasure but that other members have notrecognized as special.Be sensitive to the children who do not have “normal”or happy families. Emphasize that there are various kinds26of families. Some children may choose to use substitutefamilies such as the Adventurer Club “family,” thechurch “family,” or another family that cares aboutthem.Do this activity as a:1. Family worship2. Adventurer Club Family Night3. Individual project4. Supper table discussion

My FamilyFamilies Carefor Each OtherA. Show how Jesus can help you deal with disagreements. Use:1. Puppets2. Role-playing3. Your choiceReport on what you did:When I FeelUnhappy withSomeone, I Will.1.2.Think about what theproblem is.Talk about it privatelywith the person. Listen.3.Look for solutionstogether.4.Ask for help, if youneed to.27

Suggestions for Parents and LeadersOne of the first things that should be understoodabout disagreement is that disagreement is okay andnormal. A disagreement does not indicate that anyone isbad, wrong, or stupid. Disagreements can be verypositive because they allow people to bring problemsand feelings into the open so that they can be solved.Use this outline to help children understand what todo when they feel unhappy with someone.1. Think about it. Ask yourself: Why am I feelingthis way? What is the disagreement about? Whymight the other person be acting this way? Is itsomething I can ignore or solve myself? Am Idoing something to create the problem?2. Talk about it privately. Listen. Choose a goodtime and place. Tell how you feel and specificallywhy you feel that way. Listen carefully to theother person's feelings and try to understand whyhe/she is feeling that way. Never interrupt theother person when she is talking.3. Look for solutions. Together think of ways tosolve the problem. This might include doing whatyou or the other person wants, finding a compromise, thinking of other ideas, or agreeing todisagree. Choose one solution and act on it.4. Ask for help if you need it. Tell your problem toan adult you trust and ask him/her to help you finda solution.28As each step is discussed, the children may usepuppets or role playing to show different ways in whichthey can carry out that step. It will be easier for thechildren to visualize if they are given a specific situation to deal with as they go through the steps; e.g.,someone cuts in line at the drinking fountain, or yourbrother borrowed your crayons without permission andbroke them.The children's knowledge of these steps will have nomeaning until they begin to practice the steps themselves. To do this:1. Refuse to hear children's tattling or complaintsabout each other until they have attempted tosolve the problem themselves (except in emergency situations).2. If the child has not yet attempted to follow theproblem solving steps, remind him/her to do soand be sure he remembers how.3. Supervise the child’s attempts to follow the steps,if necessary. Many times children can solve theproblem alone when reminded, but occasionally(especially at first) they may need some kind ofsupervision. The leader may need to ask the childto wait until a time when he/she can sit down withthem, or he/she may supervise the problemsolving discussion by standing nearby andlistening “with one ear” while supervising the restof the group.
