Homeschoolers ~ Looking for something Pink & Penguiny?
Sunday School Teachers ~ Looking for something fun and flexible?
Drama Teachers ~ Looking for skits and games for ALL ages?
Well, you've come to the right place. TeaTime Publishing has gone to
the birds! We are proud to introduce our new book, Percy's Adventures at Mercy Hospital
for Injured Birds, which is the core of our homeschooling and Sunday School curriculum:
NEW!
|
|
Percy's Adventures is a delightful story of Percy, a pink penguin with a broken leg, and his
escapades at the Mercy Hospital for Injured Birds. You'll also meet Marlene, the hilarious macaw who
repeats what everyone says; Jerry, a mean blue jay with anger management issues; Calli, a California quail
whose fears render her timid; Roger, a rooster (with a very famous relative) who can't seem to crow at the
right time; and a number of other friendly, fascinating birds healing from various maladies. Along
with Percy, you will learn about Jesus from Oliver the Owl and Zelda the Quetzal as they gently but wisely
explain how to be a Christian. While Percy and his new friends confront many problems - from
loneliness to dealing with bullies to stealing - elementary school-aged children will subtly see that they,
like these comical birds, can make good choices that please the Lord.

This is how it works: Homeschool and Sunday School teachers
alike can read a chapter of Percy's Adventures and then follow up with a variety of educational
and Biblically-grounded activities from any or all of our eight Companions.
For example, after reading a chapter of Percy's Adventures:
Homeschoolers have the opportunity to do English - including discussion
questions, creative writing, and vocabulary; for Science, they may do hands-on experiments
or bird studies; Social Studies offers a variety of geography lessons, mapping, and
relationship studies; the Bible Companion includes memory verses, Bible discussion
questions and loads of reproducible Scrapbook pages; and Crafts offers a couple of fun,
hands-on craft activities for each chapter of Percy's Adventures.
Sunday School teachers have the opportunity to do Bible or Crafts
as above. In addition, the Games Companion offers loads of active
running-around games or quieter sit-down games which all relate in some way to the story; there are
Songs which reinforce the Bible memory verses and some new songs (often to the tune of
familiar songs you already know), each related to each chapter of the book; Drama provides
creative, fun drama games for all ages and an easy, full-length final production which may be performed for
the parents at the end of your program.
These Companions may be purchased individually or in a Homeschooling or Sunday School Bundle ~ providing
you with plenty of flexibility to customize your program to suit your needs! See our products
