    Week 1 teaching video

Sound familiar?

Little kids. Big Sunday morning.

Preschool rooms run on routines, volunteers, and very short attention spans. When the lesson is written for older kids or takes an hour to prep, the morning turns into crowd control instead of a Bible story.

  1. Sunday, 9:05 am

    The lesson was written for second graders.

    You're cutting it down on the fly, swapping big words for small ones, and hoping the two-year-olds sit still long enough to hear the story.

  2. Sunday, 9:20 am

    A brand-new volunteer is running the room.

    They love little kids and want to help. They need a plan simple enough to follow without a training meeting first.

  3. Sunday, 12:15 pm

    A parent asks what their child learned.

    Their three-year-old says "snack." Families want to keep the story going at home, and they need something in their hands to do it.

Preschoolers can learn the Bible. They need a plan made for how little kids learn.

From ministry leaders

What preschool and kids leaders say.

Real reviews from preschool and kids ministry leaders, quoted word for word.

We have students returning week after week (the youngest kids literally running into classrooms!) and our volunteers are happy because teaching with Grow is clear and easy to follow.
Abby RendishSmall church in New England · four years with GrowTrustpilot
For me, I love that set up doesn't take hours each week. … I love the big ideas each week and I love that it is so biblically based.
Sesha Ki ShonkDirector of Children's Ministry, Life Foursquarestuffyoucanuse.org
It is thorough and well-thought out, Biblically sound, the videos are engaging and professional … this is my favorite curriculum thus far!
Julie KlausChildren's Ministries Director for 13 yearsTrustpilot
Grow Curriculum makes it easy for preschool and up. We love that we can make all lessons work in small or large groups. Their tech team is amazing and quickly responded to my questions.
RachelPreschool and upTrustpilot
I have tried curriculum from a LOT of different providers through the years both free and paid … so far, Grow Kids Curriculum is the best we've tried yet. I love that it's lessons and themes are centered around scripture first.
Will WattsKids ministry leaderTrustpilot
We have a lot of volunteers who have never served in Kids Min and it has made it super easy for them to acclimate and succeed! The messages are Christ centered and the ideas are creative!

Is there affordable preschool ministry curriculum for small churches?

We'll meet your church at any budget. No church is turned away from Grow over cost. Grow Preschool is priced per age group, with the whole year delivered upfront. If price is what's in the way, apply for a scholarship or book a call with our team, and we'll find a way to make it work.

What ages is Grow Preschool for?

Grow Preschool is preschool curriculum for church, made for kids from birth to pre-K. Every series includes adaptations for toddlers, so the same plan can serve your youngest room and your four- and five-year-olds.

Does Grow Preschool teach the same Bible story as Grow Elementary?

Yes. Each week, Grow Preschool and Grow Elementary teach the same Bible story at different levels. Siblings hear the same story, and parents can talk about one story with all their kids on the drive home.

What comes with each preschool series?

Lesson plans and small group guides, weekly teaching videos for preschoolers, Bible story videos and illustrations, activity and coloring pages, worship music and videos, memory verse videos with sign language, decorating ideas, Grow at Home family handouts, volunteer and parent emails, and toddler adaptations.

How much is Grow Preschool?

The Preschool Grow Subscription is $797/year, $231/quarter, or $77/month, with every Grow tool included. Preschool Teaching Only is $597/year, $174/quarter, or $58/month. Paying yearly saves $127 vs. quarterly and $127 vs. monthly on the Grow Subscription. Everything for the year is delivered the day you subscribe.

Do I need the Grow Subscription for preschool?

Not to teach. Teaching Only covers lessons, videos, and room ideas, with Lesson Builder, Planning View, Weekly Calendar, Grow Slides, Grow Hubs, and Grow App (coming soon). The Grow Subscription adds volunteer training, family resources, Kids Music, and the rest of Grow's tools: Grow Email (coming soon), Grow Social (coming soon), Grow Projects, and Grow Teams (coming soon). Grow Games are free for everyone. Events and discipleship activities are written for elementary and students, so they aren't part of Grow Preschool.

Can volunteers with no teaching experience lead it?

Yes. The videos tell the Bible story, and the lesson guides are editable, so a parent who signed up to help this week can walk in and lead.

Can I bundle Grow Preschool with Elementary or Students?

Yes. Preschool + Elementary or Preschool + Students is $1,497/year for both with the Grow Subscription ($1,077/year with Teaching Only). All three age groups are $1,997/year ($1,427 with Teaching Only). Bundles can be paid quarterly or monthly too. Build your bundle.

Is Grow Preschool written with AI?

No. Every lesson, song plan, and parent handout is written by real church leaders who do ministry every week.

Made by ministry leaders

We are church leaders too. And we know tired.

After one extra-stressful Sunday, we started building a whole new strategy for every area of ministry. It changed our ministry, so we shared it with our friends. It turned out a lot of people needed the same thing.

We're a team of pastors, writers, designers, and real Grow users who have done ministry since 2004. We're Stuff You Can Use, the team behind Grow, and we launched Grow in 2017.
