We order Palooza craft packs every month. The girls get so excited to see the shipping box on our front porch. Amy is really on guard when I tell her it could be any day. She checks out the front door windows like a little watch dog. She is usually the one who sees it first.
I love them because they have every thing we need to do the crafts. We learn Bible verses and about good character qualities as we learn simple science lessons. Amy asked for close ups of the crafts so I obliged. She and Anna want to sail their boats when we go up to the lake and the mountains.
One of Amy's favorite Bible stories right now is....Jesus calming the storm.
One of Amy's favorite Bible stories right now is....Jesus calming the storm.
We talk about it. Jesus and his friends out in the boat when a big storm blew up. Jesus asleep in the back, but awoke when he heard his friends calling to him for help.
Jesus told them not to be afraid because He is with them.
Jesus told the wind and water to "Sshhhh. Be still".
The wind stopped blowing. The water stopped splashing. They both got still as still could be.
Jesus' friends looked around....they had been so afraid. Now everything was quiet and safe.
"Who IS Jesus? they said. "Even the wind and the water do what He says."
Jesus is our friend too.
