What’s Happening in the Classroom
Suppose you could read the thoughts of the workers you supervise. Consider how you would react to the following scenarios as you put your name in each blank.
It’s a good thing __________ doesn’t know what’s happening in my class today. It’s been a hectic week! There’s no way I could take time to prepare the lesson.
Apply Scripture to Children’s Chore Charts
My granddaughters get so excited when I ask them to help me bake something for dessert. They trip over each other to get the eggs and milk out of the refrigerator, find measuring cups, get the sugar and flour out of the cupboard and pour ingredients into the mixing bowl.
Bring Out the Drama in Your Juniors
The church was once the center of creative storytelling, including dramas designed to teach the masses about God and His Word. Even in this age of technology and major motion pictures, juniors love to see a live performance—especially when it involves people they know. Bring the Bible to life by using drama with your juniors!
The Master’s Touch
I once read an article about the importance of hugging. From documented evidence the author concluded that everyone needs 12 hugs a day to stay emotionally healthy. While I don’t claim to be an expert on emotional health I know from experience that people have a deep need for physical affection.

The director was halfway down the hall when the kindergarten leader leaned out the doorway to signal for help. An angry little boy was led to the director to be soothed and calmed.
Counseling Children for Salvation
Leading a child to Jesus can be both exciting — and frightening. What if you say the wrong thing? What if she asks a question that you don’t know the answer to? How do you know if the child is sincere?
Motivation 101
There must be a thousand ways to teach basic motivation. I remember stories I heard as a child. There was “The Little Engine That Could.” Generations of children have learned from this story that if they really put their hearts into a job it can make a difference.
Demonstrating Faith
God is pushed out of the lives of so many of today’s children. Schoolteachers consciously avoid mentioning Him. On TV and in many homes His commandments are blatantly violated. Schedules are packed with nonreligious activities, so how do we demonstrate faith to the next generation of children?
