Craft Activities for Children “Choose Wisdom” (Proverbs 1-7, 20-33)

Craft Ideas for Proverbs 1 and True Treasure is Wisdom

The Proverbs teach us the importance of wisdom, but it’s important to also explain for young students what wisdom is and where it comes from. Making wise rather than foolish choices involves focusing on what’s truly important in life. Genuine wisdom is valuable and comes from God and His word.

These crafts highlight wisdom. A “Compass of Wisdom” points to God as the source of insight. A “True Treasure Chest Card” emphasizes the value of Biblical knowledge. Let’s get crafty!
