ABOUT DEEP DOWN DETECTIVES: Deep Down Detectives is the second of three curriculums in the Praise Factory family of Bible curriculum. Each of the 16 biblical themes is explored as units of bite-sized Bible truths. There are 2-8 of these Bible truths within each unit, with 70 Bible truths explored in total. This curriculum is targeted at 4- to 7-year-olds. However, this curriculum is so rich in truth and so flexible in activities, that it is also frequently used with both younger and older children outside of this target age range. The curriculum’s biblical truth is reinforced by music and many activities that act as 'conduits of truth' to make learning understandable, memorable, and enjoyable.
