100 Creative Activities for Sabbath / Holford, Karen / (PB/2006-2006/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: Book is like new.*

Karen Holford has become the friend of Adventist families everywhere with her creative activity books on prayer (100 Creative Prayer Ideas for Kids) and worship (100 Quick and Easy Worship Ideas for Kids). Now she seeks to restore Sabbath joy to twenty-first century families in 100 Creative Activities for Sabbath.
"Sabbath preparation is more challenging when both parents work full time outside the home, or commute long distances...Many of us live in cities and don't have the opportunity to live in the countryside, surrounded by natural plants and animals. Some of us life in communities where being street-wise is a matter of survival. This book is designed to provide a variety of activities for twenty-first century families, living in a range of different contexts."
In classic Holford style, Daren piles on the creativity with outdoor activities such as "Pond-Dipping," "Bug Safari," "Art Galleries," and "Prayer Walking." Then she keeps it coming with indoor activities like "Bible Video Clip Quiz," " Scripture Sculptures," "Spiritual Family Tree," and "Musical Mimes." Each activity has a simple explanation, a list of what you will need, what you will do, things to talk about, and alternative ideas to help customize the activity.
For parents and caregivers who want their children to treasure our Sabbath heritage, this book is a cause for rejoicing!
Karen Holford who has a M.Sc. In Family Therapy, has written countless articles on family related topics, as well as eight books. Currently she works alongside her husband in the Family Ministries Department of the South England Conference. The Holford have three children.
