Jesus Loves Me
I was able to get some pics of my Mom's boards while back home for Easter. Here is her nursery board which looks to me like she may have done for Valentine's Day. The background his wrapping paper. The picture in the middle is a Sunday School hand out from A Beka. The cute little pics of the kids look like they were computer generated with borders. (?)

Missions...Go Ye Therefore
Rise and Shine Children of the Lord!
My sister in law did this cute board for junior church. You gotta love digital cameras-how they can catch the quirky little looks of kids, and how they make getting a picture so quick! We got a kick out of all the "kool aid" smiles shown...the after snack time in jr. church look. Anyway, nothing new about this except the letters. They are thin vinyl letters with sticky backs that I got at our local education store. I wasn't sure if I would like them, but after they were up I really liked how "clean" they went on (no staples and flat finish). They say they are reusable, so I'll have to update you later to let you know how that works for us.
Attendance Chart Spring
Attendance Chart: Missions
Next on my list of basic boards...this is an attendance board in one of our classrooms. I LOVE using attendance charts to decorate a board because it's easy, and very colorful! This is another reason for all my borders, backgrounds, etc. that I keep on file, so we can quickly take down one season and move on to the next. I thought it was neat how the charts for this class, this quarter, have a mission theme (children of the world) since we have "missions month" at our church in April. So, the teacher used that to make a mission minded attendance board. Stephanie, I didn't even realize when you posted your mission kids that we have the same ones! : )
Decorating with visual aides...
This is a very basic board, but I decided to go ahead and post it just to give others ideas on posting basic visual aides. This is actually a story card from A BEKA. Since it's the nursery bulletin board it's ok to keep it simple (though I love the sheep one posted by A. Long!). I try to keep bulletin borders for all seasons in a nice neat little file where our teachers can get to them easily. I have several storage totes as well that are full of seasonal "helps" to make a quick board such as: snowflakes, candy canes, bugs, kites, hot air balloons, frogs, leaves, pumpkins, apples, etc. Of course, I also have lots of background colors and letters on file for the teachers too. You can come up with a board fairly quickly if you have the right supplies stashed! I'm going to post several more basic boards just; mainly for my own memory sake. : )
