Christian Homeschooling Curriculum from Mother Goose Time - January

Some months we do school every weekday and our Christian curriculum, Experience God, every Sunday. Some months we get sick, travel to Hawaii, then go to Disneyland and do all of our Experience God projects in one Sunday. Potato - Potato.

This month's Experience God pack with Mother Goose Time was super awesome! For an extra $5 a month, I absolutely love this craft pack for the kids. Each month's kit comes with 4 projects which we choose to do each Sunday. This month's theme was "God Asks Me to Be Patient". This month we focused on "Joseph and the Colorful Coat".

Here is a breakdown of the 4 different lessons:

 

Each month you also receive a poster with the month's Bible Verse. I save these for Bella to memorize and I hang them in our classroom. This month's is Psalm 27:14.

 



 

Each month you also receive story cards. These are really awesome and crucial in helping the kids understand the lesson. They feature brightly colored illustrations, and easily written stories on the back that keep the children interested.

 



 

Lesson 1: Wait for What you Want (Craft- Colorful Coat)

 



Bella created and colored her Coat of Many Colors. While she loved wearing it, she also understood the story because like Joseph's brothers, her sister did not have a coat and became jealous.

Day 2: Be Patient in Your Pain (Craft- Joseph Story Puppets) 

Bella and Trinity enjoyed coloring the story pieces together. Bella has improved tremendously in her coloring and staying focused on coloring in certain areas and picking different colors! After they were colored and cut, I read the story as Bella reenacted with her story pieces.

 

Lesson 3: Trust God's Timing (Craft - Egyptian Crown)

 



Bella helped me tape together her Egyptian Crown and definitely enjoyed wearing it!

Lesson 4: Be Patient with Others (Craft - Patient Love Chain)

Bella and I talked about times where she is very patient. I was amazed at all of the times she came up with. We listed how she has good patience with her sister Trinity, when we are driving, when we went on vacation, and when Mommy & Daddy work!

 



Although the crafts are super fun and creative, the lesson behind these crafts is priceless. I wouldn't know how to teach these topics or Bible stories on my own. I love how Mother Goose Time creates these child friendly lessons that keep Bella focused and interested. I also love how we get to discuss new ideas and learn together. I absolutely love this add on!

 

 

 

 

While I do pay for this add on myself, I receive my monthly Mother Goose Time kit for free in exchange for my honest feedback!
