KIDCO LABS - 2002 to 2012
I worked as a children's director at a small church and they needed some excitement in their children's program. We developed Kidco Labs to be a weekly, theme-based adventure where each series lasts 13 weeks and gives children weekly challenges to learn and grow as they interact with their family, friends, schoolmates and more.

KIDCO LABS (2004)
Agent Training — 13-Week Series
I worked with Sheila Stringfield to develop a 13-week series where children are encouraged to go on missions and show them God's love. The challenge is that, like an secret agent, they should not be 'seen' or at least allow the focus to be on them.
Each week, they learn 'disguises' that they can put on to help people around them. For example, they can be a cheerleader to encourage someone, a butler to serve someone and make them feel special, or even a rock star to use their voices to worship God.

Go Fish! — 13-Week Series
The second series that Sheila and I created took the children under the sea where they learned about different sea life and some interesting characteristics of these creatures so they can learn more about the differences in people. Just like fish, we all come in different sizes, colors and attitudes, but each of us has a plan and a purpose from God.

Wild Animal Adventures — 13-Week Series
The third series that Sheila and I developed took some of the more unusual stories where God used animals to get His message across to people. Each lesson teaches the children just how far God is willing to go so people will understand who He really is.

God's Home Improvement — 13-Week Series
This series took a little while to fully develop and went through several changes to the branding and content before it was ready for distribution. The series starts with the creation of the world, then helps us understand what we need to do to follow God's rules for the world that He created for us as home.

Powerful Parables — 13-Week Series
In this series, we decided to talk about the greatest storyteller ever, Jesus, and share some of the most well-known stories. Each parable has important life lessons tied to them so we can better understand our relationships with God and each other.

Happy Valley Farms — 13-week Series
In this 6th series, we focused on cultivating the fruits of the Spirit, by traveling to an unusual farm where the farm equipment can help teach us the lessons. Just like us, each of them have different tasks to do, but they all have to work together if they are do see anything grow.

Kingdom Academy – 13-Week Series
Sheila and I developed this series to teach the children that they are all royalty... children of the King and that they need to learn what that means to live with that understanding.
NOTE: The curriculum is still in development for distribution.
