We believe our innovative and age-appropriate lessons will delight children as they learn about Jesus in new and exciting ways. We believe you will enjoy teaching with our interactive lessons, printable, colorful illustrations, and kid-friendly story pictures. Learning is reinforced when children are encouraged to participate. For example, our lessons typically use "interactive" teaching tools, such as stickers, lift-the-flap pictures or pop-up pages. This index page contains the themes found on the Sunday School Fun Zone, Year One, and Year Two membership sites. Each year is purchased separately. We provide a user-friendly website for teachers, with lessons that are easy to prepare, pictures of craft samples, directions and supply lists. Once you join, you will have access to all of the printable lessons, activities and crafts for the Year of curriculum that you purchased. All of the thumbnail pictures in color that you see also come in printable black & white coloring pictures or craft pages as well.
