Common Questions
How much time do the activities take?
Each activity is designed to take 5-10 minutes, fitting perfectly into your existing routines. Because we know sometimes getting everyone's shoes on takes longer than the actual activity! 😊
What supplies do I need?
We've kept it simple! Most activities use basic classroom or household items like paper, crayons, and scissors. No emergency craft store runs required (though we can't promise the kids won't request glitter... they always request glitter! 🎨)
What ages is this suitable for?
Our activities are designed for ages 3-6, with modification suggestions to simplify or add complexity as needed. Like a good playground, there's something for everyone!
Do I need to do every activity?
Not at all! Think of this like a loving buffet - take what works for your situation. Each activity stands alone while still connecting to the bigger theme of God's love.
How do the take-home cards work?
Each day's card includes simple discussion starters, activities, and prayer points that help families continue the learning at home. They're like little love notes that carry God's truth from classroom to living room!
What if I need help?
We're here for you! Join our Facebook group for instant community support, or email our team directly. Because sometimes even Moses needed Aaron's help, and we're happy to be your backup!
Want to share the love? Feel free to forward this to friends, family, or your local church community. After all, love multiplies when divided!
