Hi, parents!

We’re the BEST OF BUDDIES! We’re here together because we’re all makers—we love to use God’s gifts to make things.As your children learn creative skills like coloring and tracing, we’re going to help them learn that God made them for a creative purpose, too. That’s why we Buddies are here: to help kids grow in God’s love.

This activity book is full of happy pages just for them. If they need help, encourage them to ask you. (You can do it!) Now give them a bucket of crayons, and let them jump in!
