Hello, I loved your one blog post on Inductive Bible Studies for Kids. Do you have any online (free) resources or any other blog sites that you can refer me to? I am hoping to help our church children ministry do a summer camp on teaching kids inductive bible studying through the arts. As a mother, I also want to teach this to my young kids. THANK YOU for your wonderful post!
