Vintage tree I found at a thrift store. Tree only, but good to use with vintage  plastic Little People that can be painted as Bible characters or make your own peg people.
Zacchaeus WALK ABOUT BAG
Games, puzzles, worksheets, money bag of ancient paper coins, books, art pages,  CD & video, file folder games and a pop up house with Jesus visiting Zacchaeus all pertaining to Zacchaeus only. A 50 cent Walmart bag holds everything needed for the Zacchaeus lesson, plus the foldable felt wall tree. (sorry about the fig leaves, need to make some leaves.)
 3 PART Prayer for kids: I'm Sorry/Help Me"
PART 1-With water based markers, child writes what he is sorry about, asks God for forgiveness, dips acetate person in water to see that God forgives & "washes" him clean.
PART 2-To show that when sin has been wiped away, God's light can shine through. It requires black scratch paper to show that where wrong was removed, there is light. Saying sorry is not enough. We should ALWAYS add a "Help me, God" prayer after a "I'm Sorry, God" prayer, and if people are involved the child is to always ask forgiveness from them.
PART 3-Share the hearts for LOVE. Child now PRAYs for God to help him show love to others.
The house is a pop up Bible house I found
a long time ago. I just added the pop-up plat
form and table. I printed out some Print Shop
 people, animals and house furnishing,
added tabs to them, and put it in a file folder.

fingers. Easier than it may look.

Bible Sack Puppets
Use the PDF printables or let children draw their own faces. Add arms, legs, yarn hair and beards, if desired. Also decorate robes, if desired. The bags are lunch size bags and the cloth is 8" long x 16" wide for the male puppet and 11" long x 16" wide for the female. Glue the cloth across the top of the sack only. Iron or finger press the cloth as shown in the photos. A light weight cloth works best.
Pin Zacchaeus on a Limb-GAME
I found a coloring page, printed it on card stock, colored it, cut Zacchaeus out, laminated him, and put felt on the back. Blindfolded children try to see how close they can get to setting him on a limb. Tree trunk can be folded up onto tree, then the square tree can be folded into 1/4 size and fit into a gallon size bag for storage.
One coloring page with simple lines,

To emphasize that because Zacchaeus loved Jesus now, he wanted to give his money to help others.
Have you ever held a hairy caterpillar? How did it feel? Do you think the blind man in our story ever held a hairy caterpillar? He used his sense of touch to "see" things. What are some other ways the blind man could "see" before Jesus healed him?
Inspirational site. Cute craft idea.
(wonder if this Bible story is where the
phrase, "mud in your eye" came from.
TELL ME THE STORIES OF JESUS

1.        Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear;
        things I would ask him to tell me if he were here:
        scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea,
        stories of Jesus, tell them to me.

2.        First let me hear how the children stood round his knee,
        and I shall fancy his blessing resting on me;
        words full of kindness, deeds full of grace,
        all in the lovelight of Jesus' face.

3.        Into the city I'd follow the children's band,
        waving a branch of the palm tree high in my hand;
        one of his heralds, yes, I would sing
        loudest hosannas, "Jesus is King!"

Fanny Crosby (blind), wrote over 9,000 hymns, innumerable other poems, songs, and works.

A bamboo skewer in inserted into the straw for strength. The handle is a paper clip wrapped tightly around the straw and a wooden peg is added for a handle. A string is sewn through the straw to keep it from sliding around and a hook is attached to the end of the string to hold a paper cup that has a twist tie handle that is attached to the cup by use of metal brads.
