As the 9-12 year old continues to work out their responsibilities as a child of the Kingdom of God, this maxims cabinet is there to help. We've found the children want to use the maxims to help understand their world and relationships. It helps if they can bring the cabinet to their work spot to sort out the maxims and discuss them. So, we designed our cabinet to be sturdy yet portable.
Each of these essential moral teachings of Jesus is etched into the wood. The tablets fit comfortably in their two bays. They don't flop over or fall out. We chose to paint our as marble tablets to echo the Ten Commandments tablets. However, you may choose to paint (or not) yours as you desire. All the items in this product arrive to you sanded and assembled but not stained or painted.
Once the cabinet's lid is removed, the children may flip through the maxims to find the ones which apply to their study. When complete, the cabinet is designed to latch closed with a satisfying click. Although simple to unlock, the cabinet is able to travel easily from shelf to table and back again. We've included two slots in the base for the Greatest Commandment tablets to rest.
If you are receiving your CGS training in Level 3, you may find these tablets feel smaller than your Level 2 tablets. You would be correct; the Level 3 tablets are about half the size. Ours are a bit smaller, which works well for our context. Reach out with any questions about size and readability. The box is designed to fit on an 8 inch shelf or sit comfortably on a 10 inch one.
This material arrives to you sanded and assembled. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT STAINED OR PAINTED.
