Jesus Heals A Paralyzed Man

Jesus is the great physician. When a paralyzed man was brought to him, he not only healed his body, but forgave his sins. He healed his body and soul.

The Story

Today we read the story where a paralyzed man is lowered through a roof to be healed by Jesus. Jesus first forgives his sins, and then heals him (Luke 5: 17-39.

Doctor Dress-Up

Jesus is the great physician. So we played with our toy doctor kit. We used it for two different acticities:

Take-Out Play

For Naomi (6 months) I put all of the doctor equipment in a basket for her to take out and explore.

Dramatic Play

For Vale (2 years-old) I just let her play doctor. She had fun taking Mommy’a temperature, listening to Naomi’s heart, and putting bandaids on all of her baby dolls
