About the store

Experience

I was an instructor for 27 years with Christian Training Ministries, Inc., offering educational seminars to non-professional and professional teachers. I’ve also served as craft instructor at a large craft store, responsible for teaching various arts and crafts to students of all ages, and I’ve done Christian education for decades. Plus, I home-schooled my three sons PreK through grade 12! I'm a teacher at heart!

Teaching style

I firmly believe that learning should be fun! Fun requires lots of color (so most of my products are offered in both full color and black-and-white) and plenty of "doing" (so most of my products encourage some level of student action). Fun learning stretches attention span, decreases discipline problems, and increases retention. Want your students to love learning? Make it fun!
