مصادر ممتعة للأولاد والأهل بوقت الكورونا
هاي Mamas،
انشالله تكونوا صامدين بهالحجر مع العيلة!
أنا متلكن بالبيت مع الأولاد بس ببريطانيا. صرلنا شهر تقريبًا بدون ما نروح عالمدرسة، عالكنيسة أو عند الأصحاب. وإزا رحنا عالسوبرماركت، الأولاد بتضّل بالسيارة ويا أنا أو زوجي مننزل منجيب غراض بسرعة ومنرجع عالبيت.
اللي مهيّن الموضوع علينا شوي إنّنا عايشين بجامعة. ولأن كل الدروس والأشغال واقفة، الجامعة فاضيّة. فالأولاد عّم ينزلوا كل يوم يركضوا أو يلعبوا بالطابة.
كل يوم تقريبًا بيبتدي النهار بالترويقة واللعب، وبعدين أوّل ما بتنام بنتي الصغيرة بيبتدي “الدرس”. دايمّا منبلّش بالصلاة وبِدَرس من الكتاب المقدّس، من بعده أسئلة لإتأكد إنهم فهموا، ومننهي بصلاة مخصصّة عن الدرس. بعدين منبتدي بدروس باعتتها المدرسة. قبل ما يصير وضع الكورونا، ولادي كانوا يحضروا تلفزيون مرّة بالأسبوع نهار الجمعة. هالفترة، كل يوم بعطيهم مجال يحضروا بين النص ساعة والساعة تقريبًا.
صرلي زمان حابّة إكتب مدوّنة وأعطيكم فيها مصادر روحيّة لإلكن كأهل لتنموا وتتشجعوا، ولأولادكن كمان ليتسلوا ويتعلمّوا أكتر عن الكتاب المقدس. بس متلي متلكن عّم كون مشغولة مع 3 أولاد بالبيت، ووقتا إفضى بآخر الليل بكون تعبانة. هالحكي مش غريب عليكن، بعرف 😊
بشكر كتير صديقتي غادة لأنها ساعدتني نجمّع هالresources لإلكن!

1. Owlegories: Owlegories is an animated series that follows a group of student owls as they travel on adventures learning about nature, faith, and God!

3. Colin Buchanan: Compassion Ambassador Colin Buchanan is passionate about helping kids to understand that despite what is going on in the world—whatever our circumstances—God is bigger, and we can put our trust in Him. Kids’ Talks with Colin is a special new video series featuring short talks, Bible readings, prayers and of course, music!
You will really enjoy these videos with Colin. He sings a song and teaches a small lesson and a verse. Also, there are coloring-in sheets to print out for your kids when the lesson is done.
4. The Pilgrim’s Progress movie: Free! Based on John Bunyan’s Epic Masterpiece. You can watch the trailer here:
5. Bible Project: Our Bible resources help people experience the Bible in a way that is approachable, engaging, and transformative. We do this by showcasing the literary art of the Scriptures and tracing the themes found in them from beginning to end. Rather than taking the stance of a specific tradition or denomination, we create materials to elevate the Bible for all people and draw our eyes to its unified message.
This seems to me like a resource for kids 8 years and older. Very valuable to keep for the future if your kids are younger now.

Careful attention will be given to the specific application of these principles to real life issues as it affects the home and the roles of people within that home. The goal of this being that pastoral students will know how to accurately and appropriately instruct people in these truths, challenge them to repent of wrong heart motivations, as well as inspire them to replace wrong thinking, desires, words and actions with the appropriate ones until that truth has changed their lives and relationships to honor Christ in their marriages and their homes.
This is a free course through April!

Coronavirus and Christ – John Piper: In Coronavirus and Christ, John Piper invites readers around the world to stand on the solid Rock, who is Jesus Christ, in whom our souls can be sustained by the sovereign God who ordains, governs, and reigns over all things to accomplish his wise and good purposes for those who trust in him.
