Nursery Lesson: Word of Wisdom, the story of Daniel when he says no to the King Nebuchadnezzar's food and will eat only plain food (Daniel 1) We had races and took turns being the one who had eaten 'bad' food, who had to go slower than the other ;)
Games: Shapes, hot potato, potato races, Vegetable bingo, a vegetable scavenger hunt and color dice game ( toddler rolls a dice that has colors on it and then as to find the color that is rolled)
Crafts:
