Whether you are a teacher or a parent, you can introduce kids to the people and cultures of South Asia through the materials on this site. Caravan adventure stories can be supplemented with a Character Profile or a South Asia map to teach various lessons. Printable coloring pages, games and activities provide material for kids of all ages. Also, the Missionary Kid (MK) section provides a way for kids to see the perspective and life of MK's in South Asia.

Adults and children often find it difficult to relate to or understand peoples and cultures that are distant and different. This creates a separation and a wall between us and foreign cultures. We believe that we can all benefit from better understanding other cultures. We can know best how to pray for them. We can see them with less fear and apprehension as we realize that they are approachable people in need of hearing the Gospel.

South Asia materials are meant to introduce God's children to foreign cultures and peoples in a way that breaks down the barriers and encourages focused prayer and active sowing of the Gospel.

You will find that our kids' materials and stories teach about South Asians and reflect Biblical truths.
