| ACTIVITY: A Changing Song |
|
| Many changes took place in The Creation. First came the sun, moon and stars. Then the mountains, oceans and rivers were formed. Fish were added to the waters and trees and flowers grew from the land. Finally animals and man were created. Sing this song about the changes to the tune of "I'm A Little Teapot." | |
