God's Top 10

This is the CD that I have used for years to help children learn the ten commandments.

It is a fun CD that has original sounding songs that are great to sing and dance to. I have created hand motions and dances to almost every song. For this age group, I go into some detail, not every detail of what each commandment means. For instance, it can get tricky teaching other peoples children about things such as adultery and murder in the preschool setting. The song about adultery is called "Be True to Your Mate, Mate" and sounds Australian. The song about murder is called "Love life, and let life live". It just opens the door to the bible and lets children ask questions at their own pace and hopefully allows to great dialogue at home with their parents.

For our first week of school we will begin with Commandment Number One, "God is Number One".
