In my last post I mentioned that my Educator YouTube friends & I have been gathering some of our favorite tools that we use while working with kids. Well everything is uploaded and ready to go and we are kicking off our Shoebox campaign.

We are inviting you to take part in Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child Shoebox campaign. Samaritan’s Purse has been in existence for years serving young children and families in war torn countries around the world.
