Jesus Himself said, &#8220;Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these&#8221; (Matthew 19:14, NIV). Here are some strategies parents and Sunday School teachers can use to help children develop a love for Jesus.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59fcf0c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"59fcf0c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIntroduce children to Jesus through Bible stories: The Bible is full of stories that illustrate who Jesus is and what He did for us. Reading these stories to children is a great way to introduce them to Jesus. Examples of these stories are &#8220;David and Goliath&#8221; (1 Samuel 17), &#8220;Noah&#8217;s Ark&#8221; (Genesis 6-9), and &#8220;The Good Samaritan&#8221; (Luke 10:25-37).\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ccf1ce4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ccf1ce4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tUse creative activities to make the Bible come alive: Children learn best when they are engaged in activities that are both fun and meaningful. Use coloring pages, crafts, and other activities that are related to the Bible stories you are teaching. For example, if you are teaching the story of Noah&#8217;s Ark, have children create their own ark out of paper plates and construction paper.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-270aff6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"270aff6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong>Model a Christ-like attitude: <\/strong>Children learn more from what they see than what they hear.

Teach children how to pray and encourage them to pray for themselves and others. Jesus said, &#8220;Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you&#8221; (Matthew 7:7, NIV).\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-962ebb7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"962ebb7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong>Create opportunities for children to serve:<\/strong> Serving others is an important part of following Jesus.
