Little Man wants to write his name so badly. "Mommy, Mommy please let me write my name." He does a few scribblings and smiles as though he just signed the Declaration of Independence. Now he wants more. Yesterday during school time, I gave it a whirl. Starting with the first letter of his name we got down to business. Immediately success. ...

3 and 4 Year Curriculum Finished!!!
Two weeks ago I finished the 4 Year Curriculum. Today, I finished the 3 Year Curriculum. Boy am I excited! You told me what you wanted to see changed/added and I went to work. If you remember, the 4 Year Curriculum had quite a few changes. The 3 Year Curriculum has gone through much less revamping. None the less, changes still. Here is a ...
4 Year Curriculum is Done!!!
Are you watching my shoulders? They just dropped several inches. The Holy Spirit and I have been busy, busy. But my "seventh" day is here to rest. For the past three weeks, I have been working very hard to make some much needed changes to the ABCJLM 4 Year Curriculum. I have felt for a while that this curriculum was lacking but just hadn't ...
My Family Drawing
The curriculum this week asks the child to draw their family. Here is our family drawn by Sweet Pea. I added the title, date, and the names of family members. She then wrote her name (blacked out). I had her write on photo-safe paper and use scrapbooking markers so that I could place it in her scrapbook. It was funny listening to her talk ...

Creation Bible Story with Flannelgraph – Weeks 1-4
Since I realize that flannelgraph may be new to several of you, I want to share boards for Creation, used in the 2 and 3 Year Curricula. Using the Betty Lukens Bible Felt collection along with the Teacher's Manual, I came up with the following boards: Sweet Pea and Little Man had so much fun playing with the pieces. After telling the story ...
ABCJesusLovesMe Curriculum Review #2
Here is another review by an ABCJLM user! Thank you LaToya for sending me the link and letting me share with others! Last year I went on the search for a free Christian preschool curriculum to work with Bubba. After looking through a few choices I settled on ABC Jesus Loves Me (ABCJLM). While I didn't use the curriculum as much as I'd planned, ...

Thank You…
For the past six months, I have been working on the ABCJLM curriculum to get it ready to print in book form. But I have not been alone in this endeavor. So if you will allow me, I want to take a moment to thank some very special people for blessing, loving, and supporting me through this time. Tina and Raquel - Thank you, girls, for all of the ...
It’s Here!!
After coming up empty handed in my own search, I created a preschool curriculum for Bubs. Under the suggestion of my husband, I decided to make the curriculum available for free to everyone and ABC Jesus Loves Me was born. The response has been nothing but overwhelming. I am honored and humbled that God has allowed me to be part of this ...
