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. An adult may need to cut the handle opening.

Time & preparation

One door hanger, including colouring and cutting. 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 tips

The story behind the craft

Bible passage: Genesis 18:16–19:29

Abraham pleads about justice as judgment approaches Sodom. Lot receives visitors and later leaves the city with his family before its destruction; the passage includes serious violence and loss.

Main takeaway: This difficult account needs attention to justice, protection and the harm people cause.

Before you hang it up

Read the words on the hanger and connect the design with the passage before choosing a place for it.

An adult should select the passage and depth before using the activity. Discuss protecting vulnerable people without describing sexual violence to young learners.

Younger learners can explain the pictured event in their own words. Older learners can choose one idea from the reading to remember when they see the hanger again.

Questions to explore

  • What questions about justice did Abraham ask?
  • Who needed protection in the account?
  • Why is this a story to read with careful adult guidance?

Common questions

What files are included in this download?

The download contains 2 PDFs with 2 pages in total: Instructions-DoorHandleStory.pdf (1 page); LotandtheDestructionofSodom_Genesis18_19.pdf (1 page). This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.

How do I make the door hanger?

Colour the illustrated hanger, cut around its outline and prepare the handle opening. Use the finished sign to retell the pictured account before hanging it on a suitable door handle. For a Bible reading to accompany this activity, use Genesis 18:16–19:29.

Which pages should I print, and at what size?

The original PDF pages are A4 portrait. Instructions-DoorHandleStory.pdf: keep as a shared assembly guide. LotandtheDestructionofSodom_Genesis18_19.pdf: print the page for each learner or group. 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 and scissors. An adult should help with the handle opening and tight curves. The hanger is a printable cut-out, not a supplied physical door sign.

What help might children need with this activity?

An educator should review the actual wording and illustrations before choosing this account for children. Abraham pleads about justice as judgment approaches Sodom. Lot receives visitors and later leaves the city with his family before its destruction; the passage includes serious violence and loss. Read the panels or captions yourself first and decide how to explain the difficult parts for your group.
