The 7 Days of Creation in Legos {Day 6 - Man & Animals}

We are moving right along in our creation series! Today, we are building according to what God created on Day 6. Your kids can build Adam, Eve and whatever animals they would like! We built a frog, turtle and zebra. Well, we actually built more, but these were the ones that made the cut.

In this series, our main goal is to teach what God made on each day and to remember that He is a very creative God. But one other thing I have discovered is how much fun I’ve had building with my kids as we work together through the days of creation! I hope you have been enjoying this series as much.

If you’re just joining us, you can find Day 1 here. The Lego set we are using is no longer available on Amazon but this classic set (affiliate link) is just like it, only larger.

Let’s read our passage:

“And God said, ‘Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.’ And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.’

God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.’

Then God said, ‘I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground – everything that has the breath of life in it – I give every green plant for food.’ And it was so.

God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning – the sixth day.” Genesis 1:24-31

This is a big building day, so let’s get started.

Adam & Eve

Our Adam and Eve may look a little basic but they hold true to historical accuracy in that they start off naked. My son was insistent on Adam’s hair being super high.
