In a moment I am going to post some Kids Activity Sheets. Before I do this I would like to explain a bit about my vision for this weblog.
What I am hoping to achieve is to research and provide parents with links to themed Educational and Christian worksheets, crafts and activities. I have found themes to be a really good way to enhance my children’s learning experience. As a parent, it can sometimes be really difficult to find the time needed to think up a theme, and gather some really good materials and resources relating to this particular theme.
“Educational” Themes might be anything from a “Letter of the Alphabet”, to “Space”, to “Types of Birds”, to “Transport”, there are so many – use your imagination. I will try and provide links to some really good activity sheets on a couple of themes each week. Sometimes the activities in a whole article will be in relation to a particular age group. For example, the first theme, the “Letter A” would be most appropriate for children between the ages of 3 and 6. I will let you know this at the beginning of a post where possible.
In a Church a Pastor, Lay Reader, or Lay Preacher will either select or be provided a theme for worship. Everything from the Music, to the Sermon, to the Kids Address, to the Drama will stem out of that theme. Often the theme will be in reference to a specific Gospel or Bible Reading. I currently assist with the Kids Activity Bags at my local Church, and so will provide Activity Sheets, Crafts and Activities relating to the theme that my particular Church will be covering for the coming Sunday. Sometimes the activities in these posts will be best for a particular age group. I will try and provide age group references where I can in these posts.
Hopefully this blog and its content will be really useful to you as a parent, and might provide a base for your children to both have fun and develop their knowledge base at the same time.
