Because I desire to make this curriculum easy to use, I have strived to remove as much of the prep work as possible. Also, I have tried to minimize the materials needed as much as possible. Although no items are required for learning to occur and any suggestion can be substituted, an *asterisk is placed by items that I reference frequently throughout the curriculum.

I have also included items that I have found very beneficial to our family. To make it easy to find out more details, all items underlined are linked to Amazon.com and the pictures of religious items are linked to Christianbook.com. You can also visit Our Favorites to view these and other items.

CD's:

*Hide 'Em in Your Heart Cd by Steve Green - Songs for many of the memory verses.

*100 Hymns and Praise Songs for Kids - This CD set from Wonder Kids contains what I consider the "Sunday School songs" used throughout the curriculum.

Ultimate Bible Songs *The Ultimate Bible Song Collection - Another set of CD's from Wonder Kids used throughout the curriculum.

Music Machine - Fun CD that is an oldie but a goodie! Read a review here.

GT and the Halo Express- I don't specifically use these in the curriculum but the wonderful stories contain songs consisting of verses and their reference - http://www.gthalo.com/
