Episode 5: Candace Allgood talks about Preschool Learners, Bible Memorization an

Preschool Learners, Bible Memorization and SonbeamsEvery preschooler has a special teacher they look up to, someone that gets down on their level and making learning fun... Mrs. Candace (but pronounced Miss Candace) loved her days as a preschool teacher, but now is thankful for her days as a homeschool preschool teacher. Mom to 6 children, 0 to 9, and a homeschool veteran herself, Mrs. Candace has seen homeschooling at it’s best, and at it’s worst.Wanting to make school more than workbooks, with the main focus on the Bible, Mrs. Candace began homeschooling when her oldest turned 3. ABCs and 123s weren’t just academics, but quickly became Biblical life lessons that her son could relate to. Sonbeams does teach academic basics, but it’s so much more than that. Children learn 1-2-3, but they also learn the relation to the Days of Creation or the 10 Commandments. A-B-C become lessons about Bible characters and character qualities.Mrs. Candace encourages parents to learn with their children, and to learn through life. With a special needs toddler and a newborn, she’s now teaching her children flexibility and life lessons on helping others.If you are looking for Christian products for your family – homeschooling or not – you’re invited to visit Sonbeams!
