It can be a real headache deciding on themes and activities suitable for groups of junior-aged children, whether it be in a school, Sunday school or a youth group. Your own ideas have long been exhausted and you're on the lookout for help and suggestions. This book is a resource that you can dip into. As the title implies, the book's main audience is junior classroom teachers, but the ideas could easily be adapted for use by Christian youth leaders.
The book is divided into three parts: stories from the OT; learning from stories about Jesus; and Life's Big Questions. Titles include: Does God exist? Why do bad things happen? and Why am I here?
