Idols for Retelling Stories

 Stories Which Include Idols

This is obviously a fake idol used to tell stories which include idols (a few of which are listed below).  I would never recommend anyone make their own idol for any reason. 

Jacob taking Laban's household gods
Gideon
King Ahab
Elijah and the Baal Worshippers
Jeroboam (when he sets up the high places)
Solomon's Wives
Micah

This was made from an empty 8 quart Kool-Aid container and a plastic toy.  

1. Peel the label off the Kool-Aid container.
2. Wash and dry the Kool-Aid container.
3. Hot glue the toy to the lid.
4. Spray paint the entire thing gold. 

For these stories, several idols could be made with different toys on top of each one.  You could explain how silly it would be to worship something like this.  It is nothing like the real, living God.
