I love all the wonderful 23rd Psalm books out there because Liliana loves them and she also loves singing "The Lord it My Shepherd...always, always, I'll walk with him always" because she can actually say the word "always."Lauranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671953939596664389.post-78230356293453267472012-02-29T08:13:08.533+00:002012-02-29T08:13:08.533+00:00How lovely (and how cute your baby is!)

I've been reading your blog for a few weeks because of the Godly Play stuff, it's been very helpful.<br />For Lent, we are going through the life of Jesus with my old children's Bible and a set of little peg dolls. The children chose what colours to paint them and for some reason they picked dark blue for Jesus as well as blue for Mary. (The others aren't assigned to any particular character.)Little Nut Treehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13229214790223587780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671953939596664389.post-71433566530047094762012-02-29T08:07:31.170+00:002012-02-29T08:07:31.170+00:00That is true, I really resist the 2-D figures beca...That is true, I really resist the 2-D figures because when we used 2-D figures the kids didn't play with them nearly as much. Plus, I just prefer working with the 3-D figures.<br /><br />I do think the distinction between historical events being in 3-D and stories being in 2-D is helpful, but this story particularly I've kept 3-D.Watkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798318274262704272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671953939596664389.post-13723682428513625232012-02-29T04:50:17.615+00:002012-02-29T04:50:17.615+00:00Beautiful pictures - thank you for sharing them.

The materials are, as you say, relatively easy to assemble - especially since the usual expectation is that the figures will be drawings (or flat) rather than the 3-D ones shown here. (I say this not to be critical but to emphasize, for others, how easy it can be.)Storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06689874815365770762noreply@blogger.com
