Because we believe that a Creator brought the universe and everything in it into being and order out of nothing.
Because we believe that the Creator is the God of this universe whose nature and purpose is revealed in His inerrant Word - the Bible.
Because we believe that empirical science is fully capable of corroborating either or both general and biblical creationism viewpoints which serves as a basis for scientific endeavors with that end in mind. (The True Origin Archive)
For starters, these 2 fun-filled and informative DVDs on Dinosaurs, Genesis and the Gospel from Answers in Genesis is a good introduction for small to elementary age children. The immersion studies on life science using Apologia elementary science books and other materials have greatly inspired us to delve into this topic into a more detailed study. The 30-minute DVDs come with a study guide to help the parent guide the children in viewing the show.
My eldest daughter Vibrant Bea has helped herself with the book " The Great Dinosaur Mystery -SOLVED" written by Ken Ham. Vibrant Bea says.." Wow, makes me feel like I want to go out and whack evolution's foundation off its feet." Hold it first and learn, my dear! She agrees she has still a lot to learn if she is going to do this =). So, she is resolved to study the Bible hand in hand with Creation Science books and materials.
Gentle Fuzzy finds the topic "very interesting" and would love to learn more about Genesis and the origin of man. He has a great knack for remembering and pronouncing dinosaur names and tons of info-trivia about them =).
As for Lil Ruffin, she loves Casey, the Dog and Buddy Davis songs from the DVDs. She loves dinosaurs, too.
Widget shows recent, but not chronological, entries. Some are dated months or a year back. I didn't have time to blog it then. This blog is a journal for our family and it gets updated when I can. But it is great too if you find anything helpful for your own homeschool journey.
