Looking for a free lesson plan to teach your children Sunday School at home during the Coronavirus lockdown–without the take-home papers and cotton ball clouds? Last week I put together a lesson for my own children that includes a variety of short activities including hymn study, Bible geography, Bible drill, Bible story narration, and a handcraft. Lord willing, there will eventually be a series of at least three lessons covering the anointing of Jesus by Mary, the triumphal entry, and the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ.

Whether you’re still finishing up your homeschool year or taking part in a summer reading challenge (we’re actually doing
I have definitely had my share of disorganized and discouraging days, long nights of planning, and moments when I wondered if I should just send my children to school.
