The set is intended to be used over several weeks of Bible Class lessons. Unfortunately I don't have the lessons that go with them, although I'm not even sure if they originally came with lessons. Felt pieces are glued into position on the felt circles (although there are no pieces which are glued onto Day 1). They are displayed for the class to see on a felt board.
The set comes with a set of numbers to match with the creation circles. I have a feeling that the numbers are not intended to be glued down like the other pieces because there is no outline indicating where to attach them like there is for everything else.
I'd say after the series of lessons are complete and the sets have been all put together, that they can be continued to be used and the activity can be matching the correct number to each circle from memory. Revision activities are very important to children's learning.
On Creation Day 1, God created light and separated light from darkness.
Notice that the sun does not appear until day 4... but a space for it to fill has been created.
I believe this set is a vintage version of these Creation Circles by Betty Lukens. I have written to them and received permission to share them with you.
You can get a cartoon type version, Beginner Bible Creation from Little Folk Visuals as well.

The information sheet suggests singing "This is my Father's World" as part of the lessons. I'm pretty sure this song forms the backbone of the music score used in the hopeful scenes of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy movies directed by Peter Jackson. Let me know if you can recognise it next time you watch!
