Second: please ask the children questions about the story.
Who created the clouds? What about the rain?
Is rain important? Why? Yes because without rain (and without water) life would not exist in Earth.
Which drawings have seen formed by clouds in the sky?
Have you ever seen a rainbow?
Who created everything that exists in nature: flowers, trees, plants, rivers, clouds, wind, animals, forests and trees? God.
Third: find out which drawings were created by the clouds; ask them to decorate each one of them. The spiritist teacher could take colourful cotton, glitter and coloured metallic powder to colour them. As soon as they are finished, you could glue them into a stick.
Cloud in the shape of a heart
Cloud in the shape of a fish
Cloud in the shape of a rabbit
Happy Cloud
