Awana Night

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Mentioned before that Thursday night is AWANA night for this family!  (Approved workmen are not ashamed).  If you have not heard of AWANA they have a great website HERE.

My daughter is a cubby bear, my husband is the game director, and I am in charge of the T&T Challenge group (5th and 6th graders).  My daughter considers AWANA her school and I am a proud mama who loves seeing her grow in love with CHRIST.

Tonight was a fun night as I was the one who brought the mini message for large group time.  I enjoyed it and was so excited that I decided to ask clubbers if they could finish some of the verses I was using in the message.  Those kids were awesome, they knew the verse so quickly.  GREAT JOB CLUBBERS!!  

It was also a neat night because our theme was "Life Savior"  so my message was about "JESUS ONE WAY."  I had the privileged to teach a salvation message!  HOW NEAT!!

Overall I am thankful that our church offers such a great program.

My children also enjoy Awana's. They go every wendsday and are very excited the entire week to go again. My 4 year old just started this year and I am amazed at all of the things he learns. He comes home and tells me all about God and Gods creations and he even said his first bible verse on his own. Makes me such a proud momma:)

Thanks for your investment in kids' lives through Awana. Leadership is such a key to reaching and discipling kids in Christ. And parents are an even bigger key. Thanks for sharing your experiences online.

Liquid Chalk spray! Chalk Idea #7

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Last week we tried out the fizzing sidewalk chalk- click here to read that review. This week it is liquid chalk spray.  They are a bit similar but yet different.  Here is how to make it: Supplies: 1 tsp. washable tempura paint 1 cup of hot water 1/2 cup of cornstarch squirt of dishwashing liquid 1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store 1.  Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2.  Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid.  Mix well. 3.  Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4.  Go have fun!!!   This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week.  I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general.  I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry.  I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes.  :)  Ready, Set, Go!  Have some fun! She is my little model... she kept saying "take my picture mom." She is like her

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
