This study is limited to the children between the ages of 7 – 12 attending Religion Lessons at a primary and secondary school in the state of Bavaria in Germany. In order to obtain data the story of Adam and Eve was narrated to the children. The children drew pictures on the meaning they derived from the story. The drawings were analyzed and evaluated.
