Does Any of This Sound Familiar?
You want to welcome children with disabilities but feel unprepared.
You don't know where to start and how to teach all children.
You're overwhelmed trying to run children's ministry and you're unsure if you're the right person for this position.
You're teaching Bible lessons but it's not going as well as you'd like,
and you're frustrated trying different ways to teach every child.
Everyone tells you to just adapt what young children are doing, but their materials look too young, plus adapting takes time that you don't have.
You spend Saturday nights scouring YouTube and Pinterest for easy ideas.
You're tired of feeling like you don't know what you're doing.
If it does, then you already know how frustrating
it can be to feel ineffective :(
We Can Help You
Easily & Effectively Teach Children with Disabilities
The Adapted Word Membership
Effective Resources in One Place!
As an SLP (Speech/Language Pathologist), once I started volunteering at church, I realized children needed effective learning materials. And Kidmin Leaders needed to know about disabilities without taking a college course. That's how The Adapted Word started - a need to have effective resources and practical tips in one place.

We give you practical materials to reach children with disabilities. And they all come with instructions that specifically tell volunteers "what to do and how to do it." Spend less time training and more time serving.
