The Snake in the Garden of Eden

• Adam and Eve had to deal with the snake that tempted Eve to eat the apple of knowledge. Have the children make a snake out of construction paper. Make a paper chain with strips of paper about 2 inches wide and 10 inches long for the body of the snake. Glue each strip to attach and interlink each strip. On the first strip, glue on a red, forked tongue. Add two eyes made from red construction paper. Use a black marker to draw a vertical line through the eye to look like slits.
