Our Children's Church program was in bad shape. Our teachers were showing Veggie Tale movies more often than not. We reviewed many resources and chose this book as the foundation of our program for several reasons. We have 12 teachers that work in pairs throughout the year. Some are talented in music, others devotions, others crafts, etc... The book is divided by books of the Bible and the lessons are categorized by music, skit, object lessons, prayers and quiet reflections, trips and travels, parties, creative storytelling, devotions, crafts, etc... It is easy to find a lesson that suits a teacher. In fact, most of our teachers could plan a year ahead. The back of the book has a scripture index, a theme index, and a teaching-style index so it is easy to find whatever is needed. We have used this as our resource for nearly a year now and our children have learned more than we ever dreamed possible. We plan to use the old testament next year. You will not be disappointed in this book.

This book would be an excellent resource book for church groups or Sunday school teachers trying to develope exciting lessons for children. There are many very good ideas for the various learning types of children.
