Weaving through a rainbow (My personal favorite)

I don’t really think it is possible for me to share just one personal favorite because I genuinely love each thing I share for a different reason. But Weaving through a Rainbow was something that we threw together at the last minute and my kids and I loved the experience. This process encompassed large motor skills, cooperative play, critical thinking, and the idea that great ideas can come from the most simple materials and in the spur of the moment. You can click on the photo to read this idea. It is a terrific memory for me and a great idea for any time of the year…

Every time I think I know everything I need to know about teaching young children, God says, "Hold on a minute!" and gives me a new challenge.

Let me tell ya...

With each new challenge that you overcome, you will find yourself better equipped and more passionate about teaching young children.

God didn't call wimps to lead, teach, or care for His children. Nope, he has high expectations, so get ready. You will have to give your very best but after teaching for over 30 years, I can tell you that it is a wonderful and rewarding journey.

Whenever your calling feels hard, just remember, 'He who began a good work in you (and in the children you serve) will be faithful to complete it.'
