Source (Where I saw it): Original
Supplies: Jelly Donut
Preparation: None
The object lesson & how I used it...
Main Point - You can't really know someone until you get to know them!
Illustration: Show the kids the Jelly donut. Ask who loves jelly donuts! Explain how it is such a mystery! You can smell and hold up and do all sorts of other investigations to find out what is in it, but until you open it up and take a bite you can never truly know! Have one of the kids take a bite and let you know what is inside. Know make the point with something like this, “Boys and girls, until you really dive in and learn about someone you can never truly know them. That’s one reason why God wants us to love each other. We can’t judge someone by the way they dress or look. We need to get to know someone!"

Object Lesson | Optical Illusion Old/Young Women
Source (Where I saw it): Original, but seen picture all over.
Supplies: Picture of the Old/Young Women
Preparation: Find this picture online or in a book.
The object lesson & how I used it...
Main Point: We can't judge people, but need to show God's love to everyone!
Illustration: Show the kids the picture. Ask what they see. Some will see a young women and others will see an old women. Some may even see more than that. Point out the two images and make the point like this: “Boys and girls there are a few different ways to see this picture, each of us see kind of what we want to see. The same thing happens with people. We sometimes see what we want to see. Now the person who drew the drawing knows exactly what they were doing. The only way to really find out what this is is to ask the creator. In order for us to find out about someone and who they really are, we need to actually talk to them. You never really know about someone until you take the time to get to know them. God wants us to show his love to everyone!”
