This craft was supposed to just be a simple candle. But because I am cheap and didn't want to cut a pipecleaner in half (yes, I know I have a problem!), we developed a bobble head candle. The kids loved blowing on the candle; watching it sway back and forth. Print and cut out the candle from the Candle Coloring Sheet. Separate the ...

Elephant Circle Craft
When the Elephant Walks is the Book of the Week on the 2 Year Curriculum Week 2. It is an adorable book that I was introduced to by our library.

Review: Read with Me Bible for Toddlers
The Read with Me Bible for Toddlers is another Bible that I considered for the 2 Year Curriculum. This Bible, for ages 4-8 year olds, contains twenty-four popular stories. The sentences are short and the book contains large pictures. The faces of the characters show a lot of personality and emotion. Momma C's ...
