Our Product Sponsor of the Week is Carrington Family Publishing which puts out a GORGEOUS set of Bible ABC Cards. There are five different teaching sets to choose from a Deluxe Learning Set to cards with lesson plans to just the set of the beautiful cards themselves ... something for EVERYONE'S budget!
From the website, "Perfect for handing sets out to each child in your Sunday School preschool or toddler room! Great preschool Sunday school resource and idea! These flashcards teach Bible, poetry, art and alphabet together. Use these stand-alone cards on your bulletin board or create your own lesson plan to accompany them. In the homeschool, your child can use the cards to create an ABC scrapbook based on the Bible alphabet. The possibilities are many and the price is affordable! "
Here is how Victoria came about creating the cards:
We had just begun homeschooling our children, ages 2 and 5, when I realized I wanted to use biblical stories and characters along with classic images as an integral part of teaching my children other academic subjects. Instead of using made-up cartoon characters, I began searching for interesting ways to combine Bible characters, stories and principles with language arts. My husband, a professional photographer who is always on the lookout for vintage graphics, came across some antique Bible ABC Cards and I fell in love at first sight!
Although initially yellowed with age and in need of some restoration, the charm of the lovely illustrations and short poems combined with a Scripture verse for each letter captured my heart. After giving out the cards to family and friends and digitally enhancing them using the feedback we received, we are pleased to be able to offer our Bible ABC Cards at our online store for homeschooling families and Sunday school teachers.
The cards come as either large prints suitable for wall decorations or as smaller flashcards. The flashcards are lovely when used to create an ABC Scrapbook with your child.
To add even more value to our Bible ABC Cards, new features have been recently added. Each card now has its own lesson plan and Bible story or verses to expand on the verse on the card. Art appreciation, simple crafts and discussion questions make the Bible ABC cards even more fun! Lesson plans, printables of each letter and coloring pages come as a CD-ROM so you can print out as many copies as you need.
Come by and visit our online store soon! We hope you and your family enjoy the cards as much as we do!
