How Would You Describe God’s Grace to a Preschooler

I printed out Sunday’s lesson plan, but what I’d like to know is how you’d describe grace to a four or five year old? Unfortunately most of the lessons are geared towards the older children in class!

I have dealt with Montessori children. And often talked about the topic in a subtle way. Nature walk was the best way to go around, appreciate the beauty and talk about how well Nature/ God takes care of everything. I equate God to Nature for these children.

@Michellekidwell You are welcome. God's grace need not be talked as a special talk. It can be brought about at any opportunity. Thanking God for the meal that we eat, for blessing those farmers who grow it, transport people who bring it us etc... The list is endless.

@arunima25 So true, this is just for tomorrow’s lesson, two of the girls are the Pastors daughters so they know what Grace is, I’m concerned with the ones who may not have those discussions at home!

this is something quite hard to explain though we use the word every time
