Jacob and Esau: Birthright and Blessing — Pre-K and Kindergarten (4–6) Sunday School Lesson

Free Pre-K and Kindergarten (4–6) Sunday school lesson on Genesis 25:19–34 and 27:1–40. This reviewed six-page teacher guide, timed plan, printable sequence cards, and family page gives volunteer teachers specific background for two separate events: Esau sells his birthright for stew, and later Jacob deceives Isaac to receive a blessing. God’s earlier word to Rebekah does not make lying or family favoritism good.

The youngest children use a clearly labeled paraphrase of Genesis 25:23, not a fabricated quotation. The guide avoids blaming Isaac’s dim eyesight for deception and points to the later gospel of Jesus Christ, who died for sins and rose again (1 Corinthians 15:3–4). Read both passages in your preferred translation.
