Promise Suitcase Paper Craft
This paper craft would work for any "keeping promises" lesson plan. When I designed it, I had the story of Hannah from 1 Samuel Chapter 1 and 3 in mind -- combining the idea of Hannah's
promise with the clothes she brought her son each year.
Materials:
- printer
- paper
- scissors
- glue

Directions:

- Color the pieces (as appropriate) and cut them out -- make sure you don't cut the two halves of the suitcase apart!.

- Glue the labels onto the front of the suitcase to decorate
- Print or draw a word or picture representing a promise (or promises) you've made
