Getting ready

Age & adult help

The outside shape and door-handle opening need more controlled cutting than a straight bookmark.

Prepare the door-handle opening and help with curved edges. Younger children can colour an adult-prepared hanger.

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.
Age is an editorial estimate for the motor and reading demands of this format. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested. Spanish reading support may be needed. Website copy is in English.

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: Acts 17:16–34

In Athens Paul speaks with people in the marketplace and before the Areopagus. He starts from what they know, speaks of God as creator and calls them to respond to the risen Jesus; listeners react differently.

Main takeaway: Paul shares his message by paying attention to his listeners and their questions.

Before you hang it up

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

Notice the altar, Paul’s explanation and the mixed responses. Practise respectful discussion rather than mocking another person’s beliefs.

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 did Paul notice in Athens?
  • How did he connect with his listeners?
  • How can we explain a belief while listening respectfully to someone else?

Common questions

What files are included in this download?

The download is a 2-page PDF: 125_Pablo_ensena_en_Atenas.pdf. The story artwork is the Spanish edition; supplied assembly guides may use English labels. 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 Acts 17:16–34.

Which pages should I print, and at what size?

The original PDF pages are A4 portrait. 125_Pablo_ensena_en_Atenas.pdf: print page 2 for each learner or group. Page 1 is the assembly guide, which can be shared. 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?

Suggested ages: 6–10 years. Prepare the door-handle opening and help with curved edges. Younger children can colour an adult-prepared hanger. Adjust this guide for the child’s reading and making skills.
