After watching my son struggle to focus at school I decided to withdraw him and jump into homeschool. I knew he understood The curriculum they were doing at school because he was also doing it at home with no problem.

The Samaritan's Purse mission is for every child to know that “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16.

Be sure to make them FUN, adding a “wow” item and new toys a child will love; FULL, with no empty space; and PERSONALIZED so that each is unique and prayed over and includes a note of encouragement.
