The Complete Guide To Godly Play: Volume 8 (Godly Play (Paperback))

The eight volumes of Godly Play invite children from ages 3 to 12 (and beyond) to enter into a deeper and more spontaneous and playful relationship with God. Based on the Montessori method, Godly Play uses a purposeful telling of lessons and stories, engaging storytelling materials and the community of children themselves to encourage participants to seek and find their own answers to their faith questions. This unique approach to religious education invites children to wonder about themselves, God and the world in a way that is both playful and meaningful. Godly Play is really a practice of spiritual guidance because it respects the innate spirituality of children and encourages them to use their own curiosity and imagination to experience deeply the joy and mystery of God. Volume 8 of The Complete Guide to Godly Play includes the following new lessons:• The Greatest Parable • Jesus and Jerusalem: The Story of Holy Week• Mary, the Mother of Jesus• Knowing Jesus in a New Way • The Church• The Liturgical Synthesis It also includes a wealth of capstone insights gleaned from decades of research and practice, as well as an appendix summarizing the foundational literature and describing the entirety of the Godly Play spiral curriculum as it exists today.

We use Godly Play as our Sunday School curriculum for toddlers to 5th grade. Jerome Berryman actually trained us and used our church for his "model" classroom several years ago. His program is fantastic! Highly recommend his material, not only for Sunday School, but for teaching your own children.

"Godly Play" is wonderful curriculum material. It is what we will be using at least for the next couple years.( Volumes 2-3-4; 6-7-8) There are no parent pages for the presentations with Vol. 6-7-8...so preparing to write some of your own might be something to consider. We start with Age 3 and use through grade 6. If you haven't tried it...I strongly recommend a look .

Aimed at much older children, these lessons have low on items that children can interact with, high on asking kids to sit and listen for extended periods. These lessons are too long and intellectually demanding for younger children, and probably not engaging enough for older children.

I love these stories. The front material is similar in each of the books, but this is the best yet. I find churches with Godly Play rooms that have been active for two or three years are most ready to tell these stories.
