I am having a hard time getting Bible in. I broke down and bought a book called the Big 100. It has 100 essential bible stories for kids with activities and memory verses. The important thing is: they were more willing to do it because they had their own little book.
My biggest struggle is timing. I want Jackson to participate with us, but he is so wiped out when he gets home from school. He isn't in the best mood and the last thing he wants to do is sit with his family and be pleasant.
In comes: Wild Kratts. We have the perfect amount of time from when Jackson gets home to when it comes on. It's a good little motivator when certain children don't want to work. Jackson and Providence both even memorized their verse.
Hopefully I can be a little more consistent about getting this time in. Our church only has one kids thing and our kids don't go to. So, I think it is very important to get this time in with them. Not to mention, it is commanded of me to do it.
annie loves wild kratts!! also, i was surfing around looking for some fun afternoon activities and found this website: http://1plus1plus1equals1.blogspot.com/
