Family Worship Activity:
Pretend play- use your finger puppets (see above craft) and retell the story of Esther.
See Esther 8 as a narrative guide (or any Queen Esther book you have on hand). (Fun note- You can add noise makers for whenever Hamans name is said.. or pretend royal music for when the king or queen is mentioned. Applauds/“hallelujahs” for Esther’s success. The more creative and fun you make it, the more you children will remember and retell).
Make the connection that God had a plan for Esther's life that she did not know at the time. It took bravery and courage for her to move forward.... God has big plans for you too! God will help you be brave when it’s time to take a scary step forward.
