We’ve been using our new First Look and 252Basics curriculum for about a month now and I can say that I love it! It is great to use – I love the digital format for it. I am able to open the files and modify the material to fit the format of how we’re using [...]

Our new curriculum for 252 Basics and First Look is here. (Well, it is downloadable!)

I am still on the fence about which one to use in the Fall. I am between First Look and Lil’K still.
First Look – I love the options offered in the materials. I could use them for both church hours and not run out of material. I am thinking the 1 and 2 year old material may [...]

The first one we’re currently using for our Wednesday night programming. If you’ve used the curriculum I’d love for you to post your thoughts to help others out [...]
