Grapevine Year of Bible Studies #giveaway
I have a sweet sweet friend. And she happens to make my children’s Bible curriculum. She also answers my phone calls . . . when I need a seasoned homeschool mom to talk to.
I never dreamed that the face of a company I initially had contact with solely for reviews . . . would become a friend.
I never thought I would umm . . . sight-see Washington D.C. at midnight with the mastermind behind Grapevine Studies (Amber of 2 Teaching Mommies, me, and Dianna Wiebe).
But she is basically part of my daily life. My kids recently told her that they loved her when we spoke on the phone.
Diana is the real deal.
And so, it is with great honor and excitement that I unveil a very unique giveaway to you.
I should probably also tell you how much we love Stick Figuring. That I have used Grapevine Studies for . . . 4 years? That I keep my teacher’s manual on my Kindle. And I recently learned that there is an app on the iPad that allows you to draw . . . to stickfigure. I am working on finding one for my Kindle.
I could go on and on. All you have to do is search my blog . . . and find tons of stuff that I have written about Grapevine. It rocks.
‘Nuff said. Just enter the giveaway.

The most important foundation I lay for my children is a strong sense of family and who we are in God and what He has done for us. Devotions, Bible reading, Bible studies, memorizing scripture, a strongly knit church family and homeschooling are all part of that.
How will I, the teacher, stick figure? On paper, or a dry erase board. Maybe some day I will own a ipad or Kindle but till then the old way will work. 🙂
I recommend a white board. You can get them fairly cheap and they can be used not only for teaching Grapevine Studies but a variety of other things!
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and love others!
The most important foundation I can lay for my kids is the knowledge of the truth of God’s Word and the vast measure of His love for us.
Paper or dry erase board. I’m not blessed with a Kindle or an iPad yet…
The most important foundation is Jesus Christ and Him crucified for our sins and then raised to life again.
I didn’t know that they had Catechism Studies!!! I would love to do the OT basics…
I will use a draw pad!
To love God, themselves, and others; and to know they are loved!
On paper, the dry erase board, or the chalkboard.
The most important foundation that we can lay for our kids is an understanding of Jesus, His sacrifice, and that they are made in God’s image — they are loved and forgiven because God made them and Jesus died for them.
I’m interested in level one since my kids are young, and we are new to the bible. I’m CLUELESS how to teach it. I’ve been trying on my own, but i’m missing alot. I would learn just as much as the kids would!
I’ll probably stick figure on the whiteboard since I haven’t sweet-talked my hubby into an iPad yet. 😉
To teach them to love the Lord with all their heart. To model that myself.
dry erase board . . . unless an iPad drops out of the sky 😉
You are so funny, Ami.
that Jesus is the way.
probably a mix of dry erase and paper.
To love Jesus with all that they are and to give Him everything.
Believing in the bible and loving God!
i want my children to do well academically, but more than that to value a relationship with God above everything else….my husband and i want them to see it first in us and how we treat our relationship with them.
i would like to try some old testament studies and use it along with the mystery of history in a few years…..i want to show the kids and myself 🙂 how much the Bible and history intertwine and that they’re not separate events~
i would love to set up a large whiteboard and do it along with the kiddos and daddy too!
I would love a new Bible challenge for my children
The foundation of it all is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 15:3-4 Without a firm grasp on that, nothing else really matters.
I think the most important biblical foundation for my children is that the Bible is our authority (for everything!!), and the Bible IS our foundation. Helping them build a biblical foundation when they are young is SO helpful when they get older “they will not depart from it”. The Word of God is living and active and penetrating the heart…what other foundation do we need!:) ps. I LOVE grapevine studies and will be starting it with my twin kindergarteners in the fall! so excited!!
I will be using a hand held dry erase board because we will be doing our grapevine studies at the kitchen table:)
thanks for the tips about the stick figure app:)
I pinned on Pinterest from Amanda Pelser’s blog review of the Jospeh study. I’m sure Joseph will be an awesome study, I”m personally most excited to do Ruth because my maiden name was Ruth and I’ve always had a special connection with this biblical figure:) Can’t wait!
Thanks for this giveaway!!
Knowing that Jesus died so they can live.
i subscribe to you 🙂
Thank you thank you thank you!!!
To love God and live in His word.
Thanks so much,
Caterina
Probably on a dry erase board. An IPad would be nice though. We will see.
Thanks,
Caterina
The most important foundation that we’re trying to lay for our children is that God’s Word is THE truth and that it is foundational to everything else.
probably on a dry erase board
I am so excited to start this in the fall with my girls!
The most important foundation I am laying is love of God and love of neighbor. Everything else will be easier as long as they have this in their hearts. I’ve been reading about your Grapevine adventures and think they would be a fantastic addition to our studies. Thanks again for a great giveaway!
PS – LOVE your blog!!!
I’m old school – I like pen (or crayon or marker) and paper!
The foundation is Jesus: love him with all your heart, soul, and mind. Love as others as He loves.
We draw stick figures in little notebooks. We all have our own little notebooks everywhere 🙂
Christianity is our foundation.. it is what we will build on for many years to come!
hmm any of the options are good for drawing stick figures.. I think I would start by using the white board 🙂 I would never do it on an iPad (apple hater over here *winks*) but I might on our Motorola Xoom (android tablet).
I am wanting them to see how important the things that are in the Bible are to our lives. Not just what mommy and daddy say is right or wrong, but what does the Bible tell us.
We will probably use a combination of paper and dry erase board. If I had an iPad I would love love love to use it.
To love the Lord with all that we are and love our neighbors as ourselves. And to die to ourselves daily and take up the cross of Christ Jesus.
I would like the multi-level resurrection study.
I have a kindle, but I’m not use if I would use it for stick figuring. I would probably use paper or dry erase board.
Love of and acceptance of Jesus Christ as their Savior.
I subscribe via email.

Our foundation is Jesus, eternal salvation through him, and how to share the Good News with all we encounter in this life.
I have been looking for the perfect Bible Curriculum for my 5 year old when we start to homeschool in the fall. He is an answer to many years of prayer. I want him to understand that because of those prayers, we have him. That he was a gift from God. I want to have a firm foundation in Jesus…that He is the One and Only.
I’m interested in the Beginner’s Series for my little ones 🙂
I stick-figure on a huge dry-erase board for my 4th grade Sunday School class. Once the students become familiar with the process of stick-figuring using Grapevine, I let them come up to the board and stick-figure a panel. To help the students do this, I make a copy of the Teacher page, which shows the 4 finished panels in miniature. I then cut up the panels into the miniature picture boxes and hand them out before class to any student, who wants to draw. The kids are always excited to show their creativity and it helps keep them focused.
The most important foundation we are laying for our children is knowing that Jesus died for our salvation!
I will stick figure on my new Kindle! 🙂
I’m interested in the Beginner’s Series and also the catechism books!
The most important foundation that I lay for my children Biblically is to find their identity in who God says they are and not in how the world perceives them. If they try to find their identity in how the world sees them, they are going to experience heartache that God wants them to avoid by seeing their value in His eyes.
I’m interested in Beginner Old Testament Part 1 Student eBook.
The supremacy of God and His Word over all else.
Either paper or iPad…probably both!
I’m interested in the New Testament studies and the Catechism most of all, though they all look great!
That the Bible is the source of our answers, and the way to accurately discern God’s will.
I don’t know what stick figuring is.
By stick figuring, what I mean is drawing the little people to complete the Bible Study. Grapevine uses stick figures — like you first learned to draw people when you were a kid. So you stick figure or draw stick figures as you go through the Bible Lesson.
The foundation I want to teach my child is about Jesus’ great love for us and his grace and mercy and how we can live to serve him everyday.
I would be interested in the Old Testament overview for Level 2
Consistently, intentionally and purposefully sharing with them through words and actions that rightly relating to eachother AND God is a key element in keeping our hearts clean and clearly open to the prompting of the Holy Spirit.
We’ve begun some Grapevine Study already — the portable dry erase board works well for me…..yet recently, I’ve received an iPad and that sounds like a fun way to use it 🙂
Esther — for sure!
would love to try these studies with my kids.
The foundation I strive for our children is to love and honor God. With him, anything is possible.
I am interested in the Beginners series because I believe our foster children would have a place to start.
The most important foundation is that God loved us first.
That God and our family are most important!
That God and family are most important!
I am interested in the birth Jesus.
Probably will use a dry erase board.
i love the idea of a Bible wall timeline!
The most important Biblical foundation I can lay for my children is that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He and His Word NEVER changes.
That the Bible, and all it teaches, is the absolute, God inspired truth.
If I understand the question correctly, paper, dry erase board or chalkboard.
I learned that they have teacher training.
I think the most important foundation to lay down for my kids, biblically, is to always love God and put Him first.
I will use our white board.
I would love to do the Esther study. I love the book of Esther, and I think she is such an amazing influence for everyone, but especially for the young girls.
The most important Biblical foundation I can lay down for my children is the greatest commandments: Love God and love your neighbor as yourself. And then the hardest part… being sure I try to always model that behavior.
I will stick figure on paper most likely but perhaps on my ipad. That might make them excited… or possibly argue over who gets to use the ipad…
The most important we lay for our children is to love them unconditionally as we model the example of Christ coupled with teaching them and reading His Word as a family 🙂
I will definitely be stick figuring with my iPad 🙂
Hopefully, I’m laying down the foundation that they are already accepted, and do not need to concern themselves with meeting the expectations of sinful people, only to Love God and seek Him through Christ.
I am totally interested in ALL of the studies, but to choose ONE for this comment, I’d have to say Esther 🙂 It will be PERFECT for my 11-year-old daughter and I 🙂
Dry Erase Board mostly. We also have a huge industrial roll of white paper we roll across the floor, lay down all around it, and color; and my bamboo tablet connected to the computer 🙂
I have the “Old Testament Basics” on my list of wants for next year.
The most important thing we do Biblically is love our child and teach him what Grace is by pointing him to Jesus when he sins. We can’t behave perfectly, that is why we need a Savior.
We will probably use a whiteboard. I will have to see how the whiteboard turns out, it may turn into play time. If so, I’ll use paper.
The Bible Study I’m most interested in is the one for the Resurrection. What I learned is that I want everything on her website!
The most important foundation for my children to build upon is that Jesus is the foundation. That from the beginning, God knew what the plan was(Jesus) and His plan included us. To live a life that is honoring God in all we do, to know God’s word and live according to His word. God, Family and Country. I teach my children the song J-O-Y (tune Jingle Bells) J-O-Y, J-O-Y this must surely mean-Jesus first, Yourself last and Others in between(repeat)
