Reviews
Thank you for creating an affordable, robust, open-and-go curriculum! I love how you can tailor the information to meet the needs of your group and that there is so much presented in a fun and engaging way. I also appreciate the options you give whether you want to purchase an individual lesson or different membership plans. I used this lesson for our Walking with Jesus hiking club that meets once a month. The Truth Talk and scripture references fit well with our January theme - Rocks + God is our Rock. I am so thankful for all the hard work and research put into these Christ-centered lessons!
Learning about crystals was definitely the hit during this lesson! The kids all said that was their favorite part! The pictures were beautiful and the lesson script was helpful for a topic that can be confusing to teach (in my opinion). I would definitely recommend this lesson for any kids who want to learn more about rocks and the minerals that they are made of!
