Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the Lord --Psalm 102:18 Remember that children are an important part of God's kingdom. It is our goal that our curriculum, along with your guidance, will teach the children to cherish and to choose God and his kingdom.

WHO ARE THE KINGDOM KIDS? Children are as much a part of the body as are adult disciples! They need our hearts, our attention, our convictions, our love, our care and our concern. We must be in the battle for their souls! (Heroes, DPI) 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 spent countless hours to make sure 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 ensure that the material is Biblically sound. Many others have added their educational experience and expertise to make these lessons fun and life-changing-not only for the children, but also for you! This has truly been a kingdom project led by God and accomplished through the amazing effort of hundreds of volunteers. Nothing like this has ever been done before and could only be accomplished in God's kingdom.

	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.

Where Seeds of Faith ends, Generation Next picks up. This curriculum begins with the third 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.

We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done. --Psalm 78:4 Kingdom Kids Logo, and curriculum material and descriptions Copyright © 2001, Discipleship Publications International Used with permission.
