CherylZTA I was looking for ideas for my preschool Children's Worship class and found Jessica's fonts on Pinterest! What an answer to prayer! It was such a pain hand printing a dotted line verse for them to copy each week. I had no trouble downloading this and immediately using it for this Sunday. My computer is not new either. Thanks so much for a great product! Worth the money! February 28, 2013

Little People Lessons (TpT Seller)
I love this unit. It is so colorful and the illustrations are very appealing. I especially like the two page charts. I'm planning to laminate them, cut off the white border and poke 2 holes in each page so I can tie them together with yarn, enabling me to close them like a book and store them easily in a ziplock bag with the rest of the unit. Or do you have a better suggestion?

AHHHHHHHH what a wonderful feeling spring break brings a teacher! Just the thought of those two words makes you feel like you've received a spa day on a beach with a drink in your hand....

Anywhooooooo, I'm enjoying my spring break and I hope anyone else that is off is too!

Well if you're a teacher you know that you can NEVER shut teacher mode off, so while I was on the airplane I created this little ditty!
