  • 2009 Edition of the Curriculum – Newest Revision Will Stand Five Years

    The Kids 4 Truth Team is pleased to announce the release of a new edition of the curriculum this summer. Because of the high demands for consistency among editions and for our curriculum to be translated into other languages, we have decided to finalize any remaining changes and release the 2009 edition.

    From 1998 to 2005, the Kids 4 Truth curriculum was in a raw beta format and used by a limited number of churches.  In 2006, the curriculum was taken out of beta format and released as the first "official" edition of our curriculum for the general public. In the years following, through customers’ constructive criticism and through our own observations, we have identified problem points in the curriculum and worked to fix them. With the help of proactive parents and children’s ministry workers, we worked to eliminate typos and to avoid misleading phrases or unnecessarily difficult wording. Still collecting feedback and applying edits from 2006-08, and desiring to offer our best content as soon as possible, we have released in-process early editions previous to this one.

    The editing staff’s paramount priority in this 2009 edition was to make our 120 core Q&A more understandable, more memorable, and more logical and uniform in the progression across levels. It is our hope that the increased continuity among levels will be a tremendous help to children as they advance in their knowledge and understanding of key doctrinal truths.

    With the 2009 edition, there comes a cap on the changes until five years from now (2014), so that churches can purchase a most-recently-edited edition of TruthBooks and know that they have in-hand the “latest and greatest” that Kids 4 Truth has to offer for the next five years. Most importantly from a financial stewardship standpoint, we must “freeze” the curriculum so that we can launch into the huge investment and opportunity it will be to translate our materials for use amongst non-English-speaking people groups worldwide.

    We will continue to sell the earlier edition(s) of the curriculum until spring of 2010 to those who wish for their additional TruthBooks to match the ones they already have and/or are currently using. 

    Therefore, when you purchase your TruthBooks, you will find a few options from which to choose:

      1. Bible versions — KJV, NKJV, ESV, or NASB
      2. Curriculum editions —
        • 2006-2008 [in-process early editions released prior to June 1, 2009]
        • 2009 [most recent/finalized edition available from June 1, 2009 until 2014]

    Please note that because the PDF files of the TruthBooks are now updated, the downloadable PDF TruthBook files are available for purchase now only in the 2009 edition. On the other hand, it is important to note that Parallel Documents and other curriculum-related materials (like TruthCards) are still being updated and therefore are not yet* available for purchase in the 2009 edition. (*Once updated, TruthCards and Parallel Documents will be like the TruthBooks PDFs—available only in the 2009 edition.)

    If you are a just beginning to use Kids 4 Truth curriculum, you will want to order the 2009 curriculum edition.  In most cases, returning ministries will also want to order the 2009 edition for future use. However, if you are a returning ministry currently in the middle of a curriculum TruthBook or of a curriculum year, or if you prefer to match TruthBooks you already have on hand, then you will want to order either the 2006 or 2008 edition, accordingly.  If you have any questions on which curriculum edition you ought to order, please contact our customer service representatives (Marrena, Sarah, or Joy) through email clubs@kids4truth.com , the chatline, or by a toll-free phone call to 866-754-4272.

  • New Editable Record Keeping Files

    The staff at Kids 4 Truth loves to keep the program as flexible as possible.  We believe it is important for a program to fit into your ministry not the ministry fit into a program.  With that in mind, we have kept the materials you use, how awards are earned, and service schedules as flexible as possible.  We give our recommended scenarios along with optional scenarios to give churches ideas on how to set up their program.  We have received requests for editable record keeping sheets.  We are happy to announce that record sheets are now editable.

    If you are happy with the record sheets the way they have been in the past, simply print the record sheets and manually fill in your names and dates. 

    To Customize (Edit) the files:

    • Attendance Sheets: Simply type in the names and dates and print the file.  Place the printed sheets in a notebook or folder and manually mark responsibility each week.
    • Award Record Sheets: Type in the children’s names and dates for each week.  To edit how each award is earned, highlight the text you want to change and type in the new text (or follow instruction below).  After the sheet looks the way you want, print the file.  Place the printed sheets in a notebook or folder and manually mark when the child has earned each award.

    For those who want optional award scenarios or ideas on wording for how awards are earned, check out our new Awards Scenario Document (http://equipu.kids4truth.com/files/folders/generaldocuments/entry98.aspx).  This zip file includes both a text file and a table file.  The table file will allow you to copy/paste into the Award Record sheet.  To use this file:

    • Highlight the text you would like to use.
    • Right click and choose copy.
    • Go to the Award Record Sheet.
    • Highlight the text you want to replace.
    • Right click and choose paste.

    Additional Tips:

    • Highlight editable fields by clicking on the “Highlight Fields” box in interactive forms yellow tool bar located directly below the PDF reader toolbar at the top of the program.
    • If the document comes up sideways on your computer:
      • Click on the View Tab at the top of the program bar
      • Click on Rotate View – and choose clockwise or counter clockwise.
      • Repeat if necessary
    • All dates will automatically be the same for all pages within the same document.  This is to save you time.
    • All award scenarios will automatically be the same for books 1 and 2 of a given level.
    • All instructions will be the same on all pages within the same document.

    If you have any questions on how to use these files or need help adjusting the program to your church needs, please contact our office at clubs@kids4truth.com, hit the live chat button at the top of this page, or call toll-free 866-754-4272.

  • Year End Awards, Incentives, or Appreciation Gifts

    The end of a curriculum year is a great time to encourage those who have participated in your club by presenting year end awards, gifts, or incentives. 

    A nice ending to the K4T curriculum year is an Awards Night.  We would suggest a special service to honor those who have worked hard in the program.  This is also a time that you can thank your workers by recognizing them.  Year end award pins and certificates are available for those who would like to use this option.

    Year End Award Pins: These attractive pins are an option for those who would like to give out Bronze, Silver, or Gold level awards.  The Year End Award pins are available in three colors: bronze, silver, and gold for you to distribute as you see fit.  The Award Pin should be worn on the standard above the Kids 4 Truth embroidered logo.  We would suggest a "Year End Award Pinning Ceremony" where each child who has earn his/her pin is called to the front and the small group leader or director pins the Award Pin onto the standard in front of everyone.  A nice compliment to the year end pin are the Year End Certificates.  These are available to purchase pre-printed or as a free download on the EquipU site.  These certificates look sharp with a gold seal sticker placed over the graphic on the center bottom of the certificate.  The certificate can be presented by itself, in a certificate matt holder, or in a certificate frame.

    Recommended Award Scenarios: Just as a church chooses how their children earn each award patch during the year, the church has the flexibility to choose what type and how year end awards are earned.  Below are our recommendations for year end awards.

    Levels 2-4: The children in levels 2-4 have the opportunity to earn bronze, silver, or gold each year.  The color of the award they earn depends upon how many patches they earn for every doctrinal theme in the book (not an average but every doctrinal theme.)  Therefore, we recommend the following:

    • Bronze – earn 3 patches for every doctrinal theme in the book = total of 18 patches (patches on the front of the standard)
    • Silver – earn 4 patches for every doctrinal theme in the book = total of 24 patches (one patch on the front and one on the back for each doctrinal theme)
    • Gold – earn all 5 patches for every doctrinal theme in the book = total of 30 patches

    Level 1 – Discoverers: A child who has been in the Discoverers level all three years can earn all three year-end pins. The awards reflect the amount of memory work the child has recited.  We recommend a difference between books B & C in earning the second patch because book C contains more content.

    • Book A = all patches earned = Bronze
    • Books B & C = 1 patch per doctrinal theme = Bronze
    • Book B = 1 patch per doctrinal theme + bonus patch on the back for each doctrinal theme = Silver
    • Book C = 1 patch per doctrinal theme + cutout path patch on the back for each doctrinal theme = Gold

    Extras: Some clubs have successfully added gifts or incentives for memorizing the Truths and participating in the program for the year.  They use Bible Covers, Cinch Bags, Disk Flyers, or pens/pencils, and give gifts according to the work that was accomplished or ability level.  We also have clubs who go one step further to show appreciation to their workers at this time of year.  Workers who feel appreciated will often return to work another year.  The Bistro Mug, tote bags, travel mug, or black pen are a great gifts to show workers you appreciate them.  These items not only encourage your children or workers after a year of hard work, but also promote excitement and advertisement for your program.

    ON SALE NOW! To help you with this our monthly special in the online store this month is Miscellaneous items.  These items can be found at http://kids4truth.com/store/Miscellaneous-C72.aspx.  All items listed on this page are 10% off until April 30.  Included in this sale are items like our Bistro Mug, Black Pen, Totes, Cinch Bags, the popular disk flyers, and drink bottles. 

    If you have any questions or need help putting together a year end award program, please email us at clubs@kids4truth.com, talk to us on the online chat, or call our office at 866-754-4272.

  • Summer Camp Ministry

    Each summer our staff spends time at Christian Camps around the country preaching, serving, and/or being camp sponsors.  Churches often ask when we will be at a camp in their area so that they can either bring a group of children that week of camp, meet with a Kids 4 Truth representative for one on one training/set up, or find out more about Kids 4 Truth.

    Below is a copy of our schedule for the next couple years.  We are more than happy to meet with you while we are at camps.  To make sure the week does not go by without meeting with us, please contact me (marrena@kids4truth.com or 866-754-4272) and set up an appointment.

  • Working hard to keep in touch...

    We are working hard to update our customer service department so that we can keep in touch and take better care of our churches.

    Recently, we divided our churches into different regions and assigned each region to one of our customer service representatives.  Our ladies are currently working to introduce themselves to the churches they will service, and update our records with new addresses or main contacts.  We will be touching base with you throughout the year to see how things are going, see how we can help you, and help place orders.  We will let you know when training is coming to your area or when things you have suggested are available.

    The popularity of social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Plaxo have made it easier for some churches to keep in touch with us.  Many churches like to connect to us on these sites.  If you use one of these networks, please feel free to join our Kids 4 Truth Groups:

    Many of our team has profiles on one or more of these sites.  If you have contact with us, please feel free to add us as your friend.

  • New! Discoverers Resource - Placemats

    DiscoverersPlacematsA-KJV-Bible Recently, Wendy, a Discoverers Teacher, suggested that we create placemats for the Discoverers using the curriculum from the Discoverers TruthBooks.  Her idea was to use these placemats in both a church and home setting.

    Because Discoverer children are not able to read it is important for workers and parents to review the curriculum with the children on a regular basis.  This resource will help parents work with the child to memorize the work for each doctrinal theme.  Her idea is to review the curriculum using the placemats before or during meals and snacks. 

    We thought her idea was a good and would like to see how others like the placemats before we take the time to create the placemats for all three Discoverers Books and all four Bible versions.  Therefore, we are asking you to take a look, try them out, and give us your thoughts.  At this time we have the placemats available to download and print for the Discoverers Book A in KJV version.  You can download these free at http://equipu.kids4truth.com/files/folders/placemats/entry7081.aspx.

    Instructions:

    • Download and print the placemats. 
      • The placemats are designed to print on 11" x 17" paper
      • If needed, you can reduce the document to fit to printer margins and print at 8.5" x 11". 
        • Smaller sizes can be pasted to a piece of construction paper to make a larger size if desired.
        • You may want to cut off the extra margin on the top and bottom.  Make sure you do not choose the option to "fit printer margins" as this could make the logos and graphics stretch out of proportion.
    • Laminate the placemats so that they are waterproof. 
      • You can laminate by using a regular laminator or by taking the printed document to Office Max, Office Depot, Kinkos, etc.
      • Use contact paper to laminate the placemats.  
    • Distribute the Placemats
      • Home Use: Send home with child to use at home during meals and snacks.  Be sure to give parents instructions on how to use the placemats.
      • Classroom Use: Use the placemats in the classroom setting during snack time.
    • NOTES:
      • To save money on lamination, consider laminating two themes back to back.  Instead of having 12 placemats...you will have 6 to laminate and distribute.
      • These placemats can also be used as posters.  Print and display these "posters" on the wall to decorate your Discoverers K4T room and create an eye catching visual of the curriculum you are working to memorize.
      • Use these posters to decorate a bulletin board:
        • Print and display one or more of these pages on bulletin board by printing on 11x17 or 8.5x11 paper
          • Print the pages you would like to display
          • Cover the bulletin board with paper if desired
          • Staple printed graphic pages in place
          • Add boarder or trim if desired.
        • Use the poster setting on your printer to print the graphic the size you desire. 
          • This setting basically takes your document and stretches it to fit over 4-32 pieces of paper (number of pages is dependant upon the printer). 
            • "9 up" using 11x17 paper = 33 x 51 before assembling (smaller after assembled due to printer margins and overlap)
            • "16 up" using 8.5 x 11 paper = 32 x 44 before assembling (smaller after assembled due to printer margins and overlap)
          • After printing you will need to "assemble" your pieces like a puzzle
            • Trim off or fold over the margins
            • Overlap the the pieces
            • Tape or Staple together. 
          • Staple to bulletin Board
          • Add boarder trim if desired or needed.

    Please let us know:

    • If this is a resource you would use.
    • If you like this size or if a smaller size would be better.
    • If this is a "Discoverers Only" resource of if we should include other levels.

    Congratulations to Wendy for her winning post/idea.  She has won a $15 gift certificate to the online store for having the winning "Forum Post of the Month" for January.  Be sure to share your ideas as we may just make your idea for a resource available for others to use.

  • World Trade Hope Tracts & CDs

    Why World Trade Hope lgbooklet Over 7 years ago God allowed the Kids 4 Truth team to assemble a tract that has been distributed literally all over the globe in several languages.  The tract used scripture to answer the many questions of "Why?" in regards to the World Trade Hope Disaster.  This tract has been re-printed for several other tragedies such as the 2004 Tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and VA Tech.  This High-Quality, Content-Rich Gospel tract was designed especially to minister to those whose lives have been touched by the national tragedy on 9/11.

    While the content in the tracts remain very relevant to our society, we had a decrease in demand for the tract and have decided to eliminate the tracts from our inventory.  Therefore, for a limited the tracts are available at no cost! Just pay shipping/handling! (http://kids4truth.com/store/World-Trade-Hope-Booklet---Pack-of-100-P164C7.aspx)

Thousands have been handed out freely on the streets of New York City. This CD is not only enjoyable and inspiring to listen to, it is an effective ministry tool.

    Stocking Stuffers

    Parents are always looking for stocking stuffer ideas.  From our ever-popular disk flyers to glitz pencils to carabiner clips we have several small items that would be great stocking stuffers.

    Gifts for Children (and Adults!)

    Do you have a child that loves the Kids 4 Truth Club?  Consider giving a gift such as a cinch bag, polo shirt, or tote bag.  These items range in price from $7.95 to $17.95 and makes great gifts. 

    • Bible Covers not only are a great gift but filled with a Bible creates a gift that encourages the child's spiritual growth.  Bible covers can protect both the Bible and TruthBook from wear and tear.  They also provide an organized way to keep the child's club supplies as the Bible, TruthBook, and Award Standard can be kept within the Bible cover.  This lessons the chance of the child losing his/her supplies.
    • Cinch bags are one of the hottest bags for children and teens right now.  These bags make a great gift by itself, but can also become the "gift bag/paper" for wrapping a bulky or unusual shaped item.
    • Our larger tote has several pockets, zips closed and has a small zipper pouch on the inside.  Fill the pockets with "little treasures" and have fun watching them find all their small treasures when they open their tote. 
    • Polo shirts are available in several colors and styles for both children and adults.
    • Silk Screened T-Shirts and Hoodies come in your choice of three designs and up to seven colors.  Sizes range from child XS to Adult XXL.

    Gift Certificates
    If you don't know the size, color, or item someone would like, consider giving a Kids 4 Truth gift certificate.  Any worker or child would enjoy going online and choosing their gift.

    Ways to Encourage Giving K4T Items

    • Allow parents to order items through you to allow everyone to share in the shipping charges.
      • Create an order sheet or use our example. 
        • We suggest you add a little to help cover shipping, or divide the shipping among those who place orders.
        • Be sure to add an Order Due Date on the form so parents know when you are putting the order in.
          • Be sure to allow time for orders to be processed and shipped.
