If you’d like to teach your kids about Fruit of the Spirit, don’t miss out on our fun and fabulous Fruit of the Spirit Bible Activity Pack! This hands-on teaching resource is a simple way to add engaging projects, worksheets, crafts, activities, Bible memory, Christian character, and more to your Fruit of the Spirit Bible lesson.

What are the Fruit of the Spirit?

Here is a complete list for the 9 Fruit of the Spirit in bible verse Galatians 5:22-23 (ESV):

Love
Joy
Peace
Patience
Kindness
Goodness
Faithfulness
Gentleness
Self-Control

Teaching these 9 spiritual fruits are much easier when you have a hands-on lesson to help them understand a more difficult subject. Basically, Spiritual fruits are produced by the Holy Spirit when we commit ourselves to Him. Not being able to see the Holy Ghost and comprehend it easily can be a struggle for young children.

However, with this fun and creative visual bible craft, you’ll be ensured a more engaging way to educate your child on the spiritual gifts he gives us when we are in the Spirit.

This is one of my favorite Fruits of the Spirit Bible crafts because it is a great visual representation and application of the Fruits of the Spirit. As you complete this project with your students, teach them that God intended their “Hands” for love, peace, kindness, goodness etc….. that as they respond to situations in life they can pick a fruit or two to respond with.
