Presentation of the lesson

The lesson can be enacted as a role play. God sends Adam and Eve to Garden of Eden. God asks them not to eat the fruit of the Tree of knowledge of good and evil. God leaves. Adam moves away. Satan comes and tempts Eve to eat the fruit and plucks the fruit and gives it to Eve. Eve eats the fruit and gives to Adam also. After some time God returns and calls Adam and Eve. They hide. The play can be enacted by children by providing a script. Don’t mind their ability in acting. Just making them understand the idea is enough. Then start teaching the lesson. If there is a picture chart of the first sin, same can be used to teach. Ideas can be exchanged through the picture.
