Tell about your family (spouse, kids, etc.)
My husband, Josh, and I have been married for five years, and we have one daughter, Frances Claire, who is 3, and a son, Cole, who is due in January.
Details of your position (what do you do?):
At this age, we are tilling the soil of their hearts by providing a safe, nurturing environment and a Bible lesson. I never want the children to only think of what is taught like a story. Children now are inundated with tv shows and movies that show fantasy and magic, and I don't want what's taught from the Bible to blend in with those things. We use a curriculum that teaches stories in a way that preschoolers can understand what happened and what the lesson is from the story. We also use crafts and/or activities to create a visual for the children, as well as videos. Keeping their hands busy and bringing the story to life through application and a visual helps the children remember what they have learned.
