Mailbox Note Cards

These blank note cards can be used in conjunction with your mailbox during sharing time. As a teacher/leader, you only see your children once a week. In order to build love and trust you can send your children letters. This can be a letter to encourage them with their great behavior you saw them exhibit, the answers they shared in class or if they were sad to cheer them up. You can choose one child each Sunday (I usually start with the ones struggling the most) to observe carefully. That evening, prayerfully write a short note. This only takes a small amount of time, but can greatly improve a child’s experience in primary and even their behavior will improve as they feel loved and appreciated. I know many mothers who will vouch for the strength of this idea, as they have seen their child’s eyes light up and talk about it for weeks!!
