As you scroll, you'll also see a few downloadable resources that you can use to help continue the conversation at home with your kids.
JUNE PREVIEW
JULY PREVIEW
Over the next nine weeks, your child will be learning about kids in the Bible who rocked. Or, in other words, kids In the Bible who did what God wanted them to do. We believe that kids who do what God wants them to do totally rock! This summer, your child will hear about how people in the Bible did amazing things when they were still kids!
You do so much as a parent to help your child develop the skills they will need to become a successful adult. You help them learn new information, master new skills, and make new friends. How about we add doing what God wants them to do to that list? No matter how young or old a person is, they can do what God wants them to do. We think that is what makes you and your child ROCK!
The best way for your child to learn to do what God wants them to do is by watching you, their parent, do what God wants you do. Yes, you have that much influence on your child. Hey, when you rock, your child rocks! Take some time this summer to think about what God wants you to do and then make it a goal to do it. Help a neighbor? Be brave? Share what you have? When your child sees you doing what God wants you to do, it will help them do what God wants them to do. THAT totally rocks!
