“Does God give second chances?” Yes, of course he does! This fun resource will help demonstrate how God did this in a very creative way with his prophet, Jonah! You can show your kids how God gave Jonah a second chance by bringing this Bible story to life by creating your own belly of the whale and making a blubber glove.  Get ready to use your imagination as you teach this lesson to your children in a fun and tangible way. 

The Bible gives us 10 rules that God first gave to the Israelites. These instructions are called the 10 Commandments. God gave us these instructions because He loves us! Use this activity to help teach your kids about the 10 Commandments.

Because of God’s enduring love, He sent a solution to save us from sin. Scripture tells us that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, and no one can come to the Father except through Him. Need some help explaining this to your kids? We have a simple hands-on experiment that will help demonstrate that Jesus washes away our sins when we put our faith in Him.

God has always been consistent in His creation. In fact, the phrase “according to their own kinds” is used 10 times in the first chapter of the Bible. This can be a difficult concept for kids to understand, but we have a hands-on activity that will help them visually understand that living things always come from other living things that are similar to them.

Looking for some Christmas activities to do with the kids that keep the focus on Jesus? Our friends at Raising Christian Kids created this great printable that includes coloring pages, crossword puzzles, word searches, and some discussion questions.

Before people used GPS or phone apps to find their way, explorers and travelers relied on compasses. Our friends at Answers in Genesis created this fun science experiment that walks you through making a compass using items you have around your house. This activity will show how God put an electromagnetic field around the earth to block out harmful sun rays.

In a world full of busyness and distractions, it can be hard to keep our focus on God. The more you know the Bible and the more you know God, the clearer, safer and sharper your lens is to process the world. This is known as a Biblical Worldview — seeing the world through God’s holy lens, brought into focus by the Bible. This simple and fun optical illusion activity will help guide you through teaching your child how and why we need to keep our focus on God.

This helpful resource comes from our friend Lauren Gaines, from Inspired Motherhood, and is JUST in time for Back-to-School! She created the perfect resource to encourage parents to help prepare the family for back-to-school. Each day includes a short devotion, scripture, guided prayer, and a contemplation question.
