What a fantastic opportunity we have today!
Joy Bryant of Teach Me Joy has created three insightful programs that centers educational themes around important biblical character qualities.
This past month I’ve had the pleasure of looking over her different curriculum packages and today I’m delighted to share them with you:
Animal Play for 2 & 3 Year Olds
A program for 2-3 year olds. It uses colorful books, songs, games and activities about animals to introduce the alphabet, numbers, shapes & colors. This program is designed to excite your child about school. Each day has different ideas to keep your child busy as well as the flexibility to work at your own pace. Bible time will introduce creation and other Bible stories that will give a Biblical foundation. You will also learn some Biblical characteristics by looking at animals
A homeschool program targeting students in K3-K5. The programs Biblical focus is on the Fruit of the Spirit in Galatians. The student will learn Bible verses and stories that teach different “fruit” and character qualities. In this program the student will master letter sounds using a vertical phonics approach. Math concepts cover counting, number recognition, colors and shapes, measurement, ordering, and more.
They will explore the body, nutrition and healthy habits for science. Each lesson tries to target different learning styles. There is a variety of different worksheets and activities to keep learning fun and engaging. There are “Bigger Step” options for those students who are ready to do some book work and are ready to read.
The Joy of Handwriting
A program developed when a homeschool mom couldn’t find a cursive program that she was 100% satisfied with. As a result, The Joy of Handwriting was born. She took the best methods and ideas that she thought would work best and developed a program that is high quality and easy to use with kindergarteners as well as older elementary students. After having such good success with her own kindergarten student she wanted to make it available for others to try. The program was originally developed for cursive handwriting, but updated with a manuscript version
Don’t you just want to get your hands on these?
(I can hear your printer warming up already!)
Joy has graciously offered to give TWO winners their choice at the above packages!
Yup, that’s right! Your choice!

Hi! I would love to have the “Fruit for Tender Hearts” Curriculum.

God bless!

I just created an account. The Fruit for Tender Hearts looks wonderful! I started homeschooling my older children in middle elementary. I have younger children, and have been at a loss as to where to start with them. This looks perfect!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful opportunity! I’ve been struggling with my daughter and her handwriting for a while now and would love to try the Joy of Handwriting program with her – it could be the answer I’ve been praying for! Thanks again.
The Fruit For Tender Hearts looks like a good program to do with my 3 and 5 year old. I think they would really enjoy something just for them.

I would love to win “Fruit for Tender Hearts” for my grandchildren. I posted on Facebook, Twitter, and my blog. Thanks for the great contest.
This is a tough choise… but I think I would select the Fruit for Tender Hearts. Thanks for creating these curriculums!
I would love the “Fruit for Tender Hearts” and the Handwriting curriculum looked awesome!! Looked very thorough & while I was looking at the curriculum, my stomach didn’t knot up. Most curriculum’s I have looked at, I know that close to half will not be used for various reasons and I can’t justify throwing that much money away. I feel these would actually not have ANYTHING discarded.
Thank you for doing this give away.
