Getting ready
Age & adult help
The original catalogue requires an educator to review the story’s wording and illustrations before assigning a child age range.
Review the actual printable and passage before choosing it for your group.
What you’ll need
Printer, paper or light card, colouring pencils or crayons, scissors, glue or tape. An adult can help fit the band.
Time & preparation
One crown, including colouring, cutting and fitting. Teaching time is additional.
Construction profile: 5–10 years. Story content prevents a confirmed child age recommendation without viewing the asset. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested.
Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.
Printing tipsThe story behind the craft
Bible passage: Joshua 7
After Jericho, Achan secretly keeps items that were forbidden to take. Israel suffers defeat, and the hidden wrongdoing is exposed with severe consequences for Achan and his household.
Main takeaway: The account presents wrongdoing as something that affects a whole community.
Before you wear the crown
Read the crown’s words and look at its story or symbol details before using it as a reminder.
An adult should assess this severe judgment account before teaching it. Discuss honesty and responsibility without reenacting punishment or comparing ordinary childhood mistakes to this outcome.
Younger learners can choose one pictured detail to talk about. Older learners can explain the reminder without assuming that every crown design is about a king or queen.
Questions to explore
- What did Achan hide?
- How did the consequences extend beyond one person?
- Why should a community address wrongdoing fairly rather than ignore it?
Common questions
What files are included in this download?
The download contains 2 PDFs with 4 pages in total: AchansSinandPunishment.pdf (3 pages); Instructions.pdf (1 page). This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.
How do I fit the crown?
Colour the illustrated crown pieces, trim the outlines and join the band sections to fit the child’s head. Check the fit before securing the final overlap. Read the pictured story together before wearing it. For a Bible reading to accompany this activity, use Joshua 7.
Which pages should I print, and at what size?
The original PDF pages are A4 landscape. AchansSinandPunishment.pdf: print the pages you want to use for each learner or group. Instructions.pdf: keep as a shared assembly guide. Print single-sided. On US Letter paper, select Letter and Fit or shrink to the printable area; the originals are not separate Letter-sized files.
What supplies and preparation does this need?
Paper or printer-compatible light card, colouring pencils, scissors and glue or tape. An adult should trim and fit the band; avoid making it tight.
What help might children need with this activity?
An educator should review the actual wording and illustrations before choosing this account for children. After Jericho, Achan secretly keeps items that were forbidden to take. Israel suffers defeat, and the hidden wrongdoing is exposed with severe consequences for Achan and his household. Read the panels or captions yourself first and decide how to explain the difficult parts for your group.
