Exploring faith with wonder & joy
Our app provides enriching faith-based learning experience for kids ages 3-6 and their families. Free now, and committed to being free always, our app is packed with biblically-based videos and games as well as prompts for off-line activities kids and their adults love. We add stories through-out the year which emphasize God’s abundant love for everyone.
BibleWoolies is not meant to replace but to supplement family and community centered spirituality. It is meant as a joyful invitation for children to explore the Christian faith as expressed through the values and ethics of the United Church of Canada. As one supporter put it: it’s “cringe-free theology”!
