Gospel Tracts and Evangelism Tools Sampler Pack from Let the Little Children Come

I love discovering new ways to encourage my children to share the Gospel.  Gospel Tracts and Evangelism Tools Sampler Pack from Let the Little Children Come is a wonderful tool!
This bright colored pack comes with 10 different ways to share:
  • John 3:16 Animated Tract
  • Gospel Buttons FlipAbout
  • The Most Amazing House Pop-up Tract
  • Wordless Bracelet Kit
  • The True Story of Christmas Animated Tract
  • The Lost Easter Egg Pop-up Tract
  • John 3:16 FlipAbout
  • Silicone Salvation Bracelet
  • Where’s Everybody Going? Animated Tract
  • and Wordless Book


The tracts are fun and interactive - take a peek -


One of our favorites was the Animated tracts.  It came with three different styles, and they all work the same way.  A black screen is used to view the tract and make the images "move".  These are fun, and attention grabbing!

Each of the tools in this sampler pack come with a page of instructions.  I really like how they teach you exactly what to say while presenting the Gospel.  


The FlipAbout books are another interactive tool your children can use.  The sampler contains two different styles - one uses colored buttons to walk through the Gospel message, and the other illustrates John 3:16.

With just 4 easy folds, you present the entire verse!


And the instruction page clearly explains how to use the tract, and what to say. 


This tool is a pop-up book.  The pack contained two different stories.  The Lost Easter Egg is a story of why we celebrate Easter and The Most Amazing House tells children about how we get to heaven.  The stories are short, but create a wonderful introduction to the Gospel.

The remaining tools are a bead bracelet kit, a silicon salvation bracelet, and a wordless book.  Each of these items use 5 colors to tell the Gospel message.  These are very effective tools when ministering cross-culturally.  We used them in India on my last mission trip!

Yellow - reminds of us of Heaven,  Black - is the sin that keeps us seperated from God, Red  - the blood of Jesus to cover our sin, White - our hearts, Green - growth, who else can we tell?

There are so many ways you can use these!  In your Sunday School or small groups, as a teaching tool in your homeschool and even in your neighborhood and beyond. They are a simple, effective way to teach your children how to share the Gospel!

With summer break in full swing... have you heard the all too familiar "There's NOTHING to do" phrase?  Yep, I have too.  Living in South Texas heat can limit our outdoor adventures, leaving a long afternoon - that's when I hear it. 

SmartKidz Media Library for Homeschoolers to the rescue.  This nifty online streaming site provides HOURS of safe, educational entertainment.  I don't even feel guilty telling them to pick something and watch it.  Guilt free summer entertainment... um, I meant education!

The site is massive, but organized by categories, so it's easy to navigate. With no fear of pop ups or advertising or links to other sites, you can be assured your children are only viewing safe, family friendly material.


For Monthly Membership $10.00 or 1 Year Membership $99.00 - it's an affordable media choice for many families.  You can even check out a Free 14 day Free Trial .

All of the testers at Bentz Test Laboratory were able to find many areas that interested them.  From videos, Ebooks, music and games - this site has so much to offer!  Here are a few of our favorites:



 Animals - My testers really loved all the explorations into animals and wildlife. And it's a perfect compliment to summer science studies too.



Puzzles and games - I have to confess, I really liked this section too :-)

 
 
Study Guides - these are interactive fact files loaded with information.  From Shakespeare's English guides , Newton's Math Guides, Einstein's Science Guides and  Ben Franklin's Social Studies Guides - these are a handy tool for students.  More subjects are being added as well.  

 

 Documentary style films from exotic locations around the world were definitely one of our favorites!  It's like getting to travel without leaving home. 



Music - Classical, Jazz, Cultural and Relaxation.  This is perfect for having on in the background, or using in your music study. 

 
Animated E-Books - these are super duper fun.   While most of the site will work great on any device, this only work on Flash supported devices.  Many titles to pick from, for all ages.  Machu Picchu was one that we really enjoyed all together. 
 
 
 
I really liked many of the Special Needs Learners resources, having some struggling readers.   My younger readers found many of these entertaining too.  For example - the "I See and Spell" book for was very engaging while teaching spelling with a rhyme.   

 
 
 
 
 
 
History - WW2 videos were a hit with my older testers.  This site is full of really good stuff.  I love to supplement our studies with videos and ebooks.  SmartKidz has done all the hard work of finding the good content, and making sure that you don't "accidentially" end up with questionable content.  That's major peace of mind for this mom!
 



I've only given you a glimpse at what you can choose from.  This is one resource that we will be able to use in so many different ways.  I strongly encourage you to check this one out!

Snow Day in ARKANSAS!


It does snow in Arkansas! We woke up feeling like we were "home"! After an extensive search - I was able to find coats, boots, mittens, hats, scarves all times 7 (thankfully Esther didn't want to go out!)
It gave me a moment of relief that I don't have to do this every day!
The kiddos had a great time out in the snow, and the best part for me - the snow will be gone by Monday!!
