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 tips

The story behind the craft

Bible passage: Leviticus 10:1–7

Nadab and Abihu offer unauthorised fire before the LORD and die. The account interrupts the beginning of priestly service with a severe warning about holiness and responsibility.

Main takeaway: This difficult priestly account concerns the seriousness of sacred responsibility.

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 select the depth and suitability. Explain the setting of priestly service and avoid using the deaths to frighten children about ordinary mistakes.

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 responsibility had the brothers been given?
  • Why does the setting matter to understanding the account?
  • How can we treat an entrusted responsibility with care?

How do I fit the crown?
