Bible and Character Studies

Posted in Christian Life, and Homeschooling

As I wrote about a couple of weeks ago, one of the new things that we’ve added to Munchkin’s studies recently is the Keepers of the Faith: Keepers at Home program.  We’re still working on various details and figuring out exactly how we want to implement the program into our schedule, but slowing, the pieces are falling into place.  As part of the program, Munchkin will be working on Bible and character studies.  Using some resources I found online, I assembled 3 different workbooks to get her started.
