Curriculum for Ages 4-5

Preschool & Kindergarten

Welcome

Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the Lord.

Psalm102:18

 

 

Welcome to the Kingdom Kids Curriculum! This psalm has become our theme. To truly make the most of this curriculum, we hope that it will become your theme, too. Remember that children are an important part of God’s kingdom. It is our goal that this curriculum, along with your guidance, will teach the children to cherish and to choose God and his kingdom.

Empowering Our Children: The Heart of Children's Ministry

What ministry within the walls of the worship building is more important than a congregation's Children's Ministry? Children need our hearts, attention, convictions, love, care, protection, and concern. We must battle for their attention, minds, hearts, and ultimately their souls.

Where do we fight this battle? In the classroom, on the playground, at church, and on our knees! God has moved powerfully to create a curriculum that will arm us to be victorious in this battle. Children’s ministry leaders from many churches have dedicated countless hours to ensure that these lessons help our children develop a fundamental, vivid, and practical knowledge of the scriptures and a personal faith in God.

 

A biblical advisory committee has reviewed each lesson to assure that the material is biblically sound. Many others have contributed their educational experience and expertise to make these lessons fun and life-changing—not only for the children but also for you! The Kingdom Kids Curriculum will help any disciple teach any lesson—regardless of their previous experience with children.

The Kingdom Kids curriculum has truly been a project led by God and accomplished through the amazing effort of hundreds of volunteers. This work stands as one of the proudest accomplishments of the Disciple Movement.

Kingdom Kids Forever

Classic1

The Kingdom Kids two-year curriculum includes both preschool and school- age lessons. Seeds of Faith takes the children from preschool through second grade.

It introduces them to six exciting and dynamic learning centers: Bible Story, Life Application, Craft, Game, Scripture Memory and Bible Skills. In all lessons, the preclass activity provides a preview of the current lesson and a review of preceding lessons. This curriculum plan will take the children through both the Old and New Testaments with units such as: The Adventures of Moses, Creation, Young Heroes for God, and Obedience.

Together with a Parent Letter for each unit, these lessons promise to help children relate biblical concepts to their everyday experiences. Seeds of Faith is truly the beginning of our children’s spiritual growth.

GENERATION (1)

Where Seeds of Faith ends, Generation: Next picks up. This curriculum begins with the 3rd grade and continues through the preteen years, training each student to make godly choices. Using the Bible, students will explore God’s awesome creation, travel through the Red Sea, dig up evidences, cross over to the Promised Land and even peer into the empty tomb. These lessons allow the students to apply important Bible principles to their everyday lives. Generation: Next takes the seeds planted and waters them such that each student has the foundation to make his or her decision to be a disciple for life.
