In this Creation Day 6 Bible Lesson, preschool children learn that after God created the world and filled it with animals, He made people. God made the first people, Adam and Eve, and gave them life. This lesson builds directly on earlier Creation lessons and helps children understand that people are part of God’s good creation.
In previous lessons, children learned how God prepared the world step by step. God made the light, the sky, the land and plants, and the sun, moon, and stars. Then God filled the sky with birds and the sea with fish and sea animals. On Day 6, God made land animals. Now, the story continues as God creates people.
This post explains how this Creation Day 6 Bible lesson: God Made People works, why the activities support spiritual understanding, and how the lesson helps preschoolers connect the Bible story to themselves in a meaningful way.
Revisiting Earlier Creation Days in This Creation Day 6 Bible Lesson
Before introducing the creation of people, it is important to briefly review what children already know. By this point in the Creation series, children understand that God created the world with order and purpose.
Using sensory bottles from earlier lessons, children review:
This review helps children remember that God made everything step by step and prepared the world for living things. It also creates a natural transition into what God made next.
Reading the Creation Story: God Made People
After reviewing Creation, the lesson moves into the Creation story using a simple picture book page. This page connects animal creation to the creation of people without repeating earlier teaching.
Children hear that on Day 6, God did something special. God made the first person, Adam, and breathed life into him. This short reading helps children understand that people are not separate from Creation, but part of it.
At this point, the Bible truth becomes clear: God made people.
Visual Story: God Made the First Person
To help children understand this idea more concretely, the lesson includes a visual story using play dough. As the teacher slowly forms a simple figure, children hear how God made Adam from the dust of the ground.
This visual storytelling helps preschoolers see that God formed people with care and intention. Naming body parts as the figure is shaped supports understanding without adding unnecessary detail.
The focus remains on one clear truth: God made the first person and gave him life.
God Made Eve
After introducing Adam, the lesson briefly explains that God also made Eve. This section is intentionally short and factual. It completes the Creation account without moving ahead to the Garden of Eden story.
Children hear that God made Adam and God made Eve. Together, they learn the key idea: God made people.
Sorting as a Visual Bible Activity: God Made and People Made
Next, children participate in a sorting activity using two simple headers: God Made and People Made. This activity helps children think carefully about creation and understand the difference between what God creates and what people can make.
As picture cards are sorted, children discuss each item and decide where it belongs. This encourages early thinking skills while reinforcing the Bible truth.
Sorting also supports spiritual understanding by helping children see that people are part of God’s creation, not something people make.
Reinforcing the Lesson With a Personal Craft
To finish the lesson, children complete a simple God Made Me craft. Each child creates a self portrait, reinforcing the idea that God made Adam, God made Eve, and God made each child.
This personal connection helps children move from learning about the Bible story to understanding that they are included in God’s creation.
Reviewing the Bible Truth
At the end of the lesson, the teacher reviews the main ideas:
- God made the world
- God made the animals
- God made people
- God gave people life
This repetition helps children remember the lesson and prepares them for prayer.
Take Home Learning for Families
Each child takes home a small booklet titled God Made People. The booklet includes simple statements:
- God made Adam
- God made Eve
- God made me
This supports family conversation and helps reinforce the Bible truth at home.
Why This Creation Day 6 Bible Lesson Works for Preschool
This Creation Day 6 Bible Lesson: God Made People works because it builds naturally on earlier lessons. Children first review what they already know, then learn something new, and finally apply the Bible truth through hands on activities.
The lesson keeps the focus on one clear idea and avoids overwhelming young learners. Visual storytelling, sorting, and crafting help children engage with the Creation story in a meaningful way.
Most importantly, children learn that people are part of God’s good creation and that God made them with care.

You’re most welcome, Marie 🙂
Many thanks for all the work you’ve put into your children’s programs. I teach a 4 year old Sunday School class and I search the internet for good material to supplement my lesson plan. Your Creation series has been perfect; I especially like the send home sheet about what they’ve learned.
I made mobiles for each day and make up simple snack bags with small water, a snack to reinforce the subject, and a clip art picture and Bible verse.
on the bag.
You may like this idea from online: Salt Painting.
Cut sheet of paper in quarters and place on a tray
using a glue bottle draw a simple design
(used for day 4 -stars, sun & moon)
Generously shake salt over glue
Using water colors, show kids how to touch color to salt and the salt will take up the color.
These turned out well, only you’ll have to carefully watch that the kids use a separate cup of water to clean brush between colors or they become muddy.
Blessings to you and your family.
