Explain to the children how the God created the heavens and the earth, and show the water that the earth was covered with. (Gen 1:2)  the natural materials, or maybe you could take the children outside and point out the trees, grass, flowers, things like that.  (Gen 1:12) Then show the sun, moon and stars.  Maybe you could poke a hole through them and hang them.  (Gen 1:16-18)  Then show the sea life pictures, (Gen 1:21-22) the animal pictures (Gen 1:24-26) and finally explain how God created men and women, just like they are boys and girls.
