o        http://www.missionarlington.org/Curriculum.htm
#1 - Hands-on ideas to teach bible stories. The last page in each
story are the easy and great activity ideas I loved.

Some have preschool coloring pages, some have crafts or an online
quiz, some have activity sheets to print out - a variety of resources
to go with each bible story.

The same people as above - this is their list of Scripture Memory

#2 - Bible Story Activity Sheets. These are for kids who read.
Crosswords, word searches, fill-in-the-blank. They require some
reference look-ups, so the child must know how to read (or you have
to help them). I'd say 3rd grade or so.

o        http://mssscrafts.com
Dizziing amount of links for bible stories. There's an incredible
amount of information for each story and almost overwhelming - but
fabulous when you're stuck and don't know how to bring a bible lesson
home. -- The links on the right of the page take you to "Old Testament"
or "New", etc.
