This curriculum includes lesson plans that can stand alone, ideal for summer sessions when gatherings are smaller or for Sundays when teachers are given a holiday. There is a description of each as a "selling point" to attract volunteers and complete list of all the materials needed. Embedded in the lesson plans are rituals to be repeated each Sunday; the Sharing Circle is described and "Magic Penny" is the suggested hymn. Lessons are based on The Big Brag, The Butter Battle Book, Horton Hears a Who, I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today, If I Ran the Zoo, The King's Stilts, The Lorax, Oh, The Thinks You Can Think, and On Beyond Zebra. Packet includes two additional resources: A booklet entitled The Church Where People Laugh by Gwen Foss and Cat's Cradle by Camilla Gryski.
