Glad Heart Series for Ages 1-2 Quarter 2- Jesus, Son of God

$25.00

The Glad Heart Series for ages 1-2 employs visual and tactile materials and songs set to familiar tunes to capture the attention of young children and teach them God’s Word.  The same material is presented each week for 13 weeks, as very young children need repetition and review to master new vocabulary words and ideas.  Craft templates and instructions are provided for creating a unique craft each week, which reinforces the objectives of the lesson.

 

Quarter 2: Jesus, Son of God presents the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ to 1- and 2-year-olds using words and concepts they can understand. The message of the gospel is applied personally to each young heart, and the children will experience the extravagant love of the Father in John 3:16.
