We meet Abraham in Genesis because he was special to God. God liked his faith and promised that he would be the father of many generations to the whole nation of Israel! Abraham’s sons and grandsons were the beginnings of Israel, and they have special chapters in the Book of Genesis. Let’s learn their names by jumping rope in this fun Bible game!
“Father Abraham & Sons” Jump Rope Rhyme Bible Game
Materials:
Jump ropes, enough for each student, or they can take turns if you have more kids than ropes.
Object:
To skip all the way through the rhymes without missing either the words or a skip.
Instructions:
Have children start out skipping rope with the slower big-jump, small-jump steps. Either you or one child can learn this and skip to it:
A-braham and Sarah have Isaac.
I-saac weds Rebekah!
Rebekah has E-sau and Jacob!
Jacob mar-ries Rachel!
Rachel fi-nally has Joseph!
And this is the line from A-bra-ham!
Double time: One skip for each name
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph!
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph!
