Guidelines for Manuscript Submission
We
do accept proposals for Sunday School and Vacation Bible School
curriculum and related resources for children from birth through
the preteen years. All of our curriculum is written and field
tested by experienced teachers; most of our writers are on
staff.
If
you wish to submit a curriculum proposal, please include the
following:
| 1.
|
A
cover letter stating your project's purpose and the
age level at which your project is targeted |
| 2.
|
An
outline of the proposed contents of your project |
| 3.
|
Two
or three representative lesson samples |
| 4.
|
A
self-addressed stamped envelope for return of your manuscript |
Please
note:
We do not publish or distribute children's storybooks, poetry,
or gift items. We specialize in curriculum and teacher training
resources.
Guidelines

you would like to be considered as a reader for new curriculum
projects, please submit a letter with relevant information
including your church name, denomination, size of children's
