This is a guide to help you understand the variety of ways to use the modules and lessons. Module/Lesson Guide Do NOT be overwhelmed! A module/lesson may look like a lot because everyone needs something different. A whole module/lesson page should take you 15 minutes (unless the rabbit holes start). Below is a guide for the parts of a module/lesson. Find what works for you and your family. The goal: 5 Minutes a Day 5 Days a Week 5 x 5 = 25 Minutes a Week, 25 x 52 = 22 hours a year! If you still need help (because I usually do), I offer a FREE 20 Minute Consultation to help! Crafty Humans Craft it - Pinterest If you have crafty humans, the "Craft It" link will send you to my Pinterest Board. I have gone through and picked just a few crafts that are simple, printable, and possible in our busy lives. Researchers Wikipedia We all know HOW to use Wikipedia, but this is a good reminder to actually USE Wikipedia. While Wikipedia is not an ending point, it is a great beginning point for leveling up what may interest us as we research our faith. All Ages Screen Peeps Watch It - YouTube We watch screens all the time. While the videos are usually geared toward younger ages, there is something to learn for all ages in these short videos about whatever subject you are learning. Bible Beaters Read It The Bible, which is complex, is also powerful. Not all versions of the Bible are the same. There are ones that are more accurate, some that paraphrase, and everything in between. The Bible links takes you to different scripture versions that relate to what you are learning. You can also find the one that works best for your family's understanding level. The Basics Opening Paragraphs The opening paragraphs are to give everyone a quick insight, understanding, reminder, and learning. That's all! Now you can go back to your life. Oh... TIDBITS! Fun Facts If you have more than a few minutes, you can keep reading the page. There are fun facts, tidbits, scriptures, and a variety of learning possibilities. Now What? Read it Again... When you have time... read, watch or learn some of it again. It won't hurt... well... I don't think it will. Ummm... what? Spiritual Practice It If you are ready to level up, this is where you can journal, pray, dance, question, and engage with what you are learning. Coloring is a great spiritual practice. Finding words that speak to you in a scripture. Lighting a candle. Asking a question to yourself or with someone else. ... and so much more. Little Steps Go a Long Way! Connect It - Text message a scripture to your teenager. - Add a note to your child's lunchbox. - Place a character drawing on your dinner table. - Find the scripture and mark it in your family Bible. - Find a coloring sheet with the scripture. - Tell someone at work or school about what you learned.

Quick Reminder from Sesame Street: What to say when your child says, “I’m scared!” 2 years old or younger: Let your child know it’s okay to feel scared. Even more than words, young children need tangible reassurance. Try providing your child with a comfort item to hold on to, and keep her close at hand. Lots of hugs help, too! 3 TO 5: “It’s OK to feel scared. Can you tell Mommy why you’re scared? Mommy loves you, and I will be here to keep you safe.” 6 TO 11: Start by asking your child what she already knows about what has happened and how she’s feeling, so you know how to address her particular concerns. Reassure her that it’s okay to be scared, but that she is safe and will be cared for.” Storybook Bibles, Bibles & Other Shopping Toddler Bible Stories Baby's Tiny Bible and Prayers: Mini Boxed Set Children of God Storybook Bible by Archbishop Desmond Tutu Frolic and Holy Moly Sparkhouse Bibles (Available for different ages) Younger Elementary Bible Stories Sparkhouse Bibles (Available for different ages) Whirl and Spark Older Elementary Story Bibles: Shine Bible Shine Bible (Spanish) Music Butterflyfish - 'Great and Small' (indie/folk) SALT Project Butterflyfish - 'Ladybug' (indie/folk) SALT Project Bryan Sirchio: Bugs for Lunch Bryan Sirchio: Worms in the Bread Justin Roberts: Why Not See Monsters?: Songs from the New Testament Justin Roberts: Why Not Sea Monsters?: Songs from the Hebrew Scriptures Slugs and Bugs Children's Books I believe everyone can learn from Children's Books!
