THINK TANK – Note that the following videos ARE NOT for younger students. Many of these videos have vulgarities, foul language, and scenes that are not appropriate (we do not endorse). Some of the bad language comes from the YouTube channel itself (when the video creator is discussing ongoing issues while ironically using bad language). We do not support this, but we could not find any videos without it. Therefore, we advise you to watch at your own discretion. We will link to a few different videos below.

This is here as a courtesy only. We have not personally screened them. No books are required for the unit. Customers may also write in and suggest to add books to this list. These come recommended to us by others, and if you have any suggestions to add to this list, please email in so we can do so. Some of these books may contain more mature themes or theology that we do not necessarily endorse, so we advise all parents to screen for content and personal beliefs. Books can also be sub-categorized into different age groups, so feel free to jump around!
