The Little Flower Pot Bible object lesson will delight your preschoolers as they learn the truth that God has a purpose for every one of us.
The Little Flower Pot Bible object lesson has become one of my favorite lessons to share with young children to help them learn that God has a plan for every person He has lovingly created. This Bible object lesson uses a simple “magic” trick called the “Magic Flower Pot and Wand” by Melissa and Doug. This trick is very easy to use. It comes to life along with the story that I have written to go along with it.
Take a look at this sample presentation of the lesson:

From the little flower pot, your preschoolers will be introduced to a flower pot who has never had a flower grow from her little pot. All the other flower pots around her seem to always have plants growing from their containers. But not this little flower pot. She begins to feel sad and wonders what her purpose is.
Take a look at a sample of the script below to understand the feelings of the little flower pot – feelings many of us have had in our own lives:
Once there was a little flower pot
Feeling sad and blue
Because she didn’t have a pretty flower
Out of her pot that grew
All the other little flower pots
Had flowers growing big
But this little flower pot
Couldn’t even grow a twig
“What’s the matter with me?”
The flower pot felt bad
“Why am I so different?”
“I’m feeling very sad.”
But then one day
While the flower pot was feeling blue
A man came and picked her up
What was he going to do
The man was dressed in black
From his head to his toe
And he carried a big stick in his hand
The kind used in a magic show
The man took the flower pot
And shined her pot till it glowed
Maybe now she would grow a flower
One that she would be proud to show…
This is just a sample of this sweet story and a little flower pot that learned God had a special plan just for her.

Thank you for sharing your love of Jesus with children. Cute video and a hands on activity for the children to see that we are all created by God to grow in ourfaith in him.
Thank you so much.
I was looking for something for my pre-k kids in the
afternoon. Don’t teach about God in my pre-k students im their program so I start doing it in the afternoon when they arrive.
Again Thank you
I thank God for all the blessings in my life. Thank you for your website.
Love this lesson! Its something so simple but the kids are so amazed 🙂 Cant wait to do it in my class!
Looks like a fun lesson I’d like to have. Thank you!
Wow! Where do we start in giving thanks for God’s plan for our lives??? And just to know and be reminded that He started with me as a child…and probably most of us could say the same! My favorite scripture to pray is…”Teach me thy ways of Lord and lead me in a plain path.” It has not always been plain, unless just leaving it all with God and follow one step at a time…that is pretty plain…one step at a time!
Thank you for the work you do to provide ways to share God’s word in a way that children can understand it ! I too am thankful that God indeed has a plan for each of us. I’m thankful for His plan for my life – and the way He changed the direction of my life – I hate to think of where I’d be today except for God’s grace in my life.
WE will be working on a similar project in our VBS this year. I would love a lesson.
