Planting Seeds
At Camp Delaney Mae, we think of these stories as planting seeds.
A child may remember a brave choice, a kind act, a mistake made right, or a bit of Woodland wisdom long before they understand everything underneath it. Some of those seeds may sit quietly for a long time.
But when a parent, grandparent, teacher, or faith leader waters that seed with conversation, Scripture, example, and love, it has an endless amount of room to grow.
That is the purpose behind Roots Beneath the Stories. The stories are meant to stand on their own first. The biblical truths are not there to turn every story into a sermon. They are there for the adults who want to help children discover the deeper roots beneath what they have read.
Stories first. Deeper conversations when you want them.
The Camp Delaney Mae stories stand on their own. These optional family resources are here for readers who would like to explore some of the values, lessons, and Scripture connections beneath the stories.

Roots Beneath the Stories
A clear six-page companion guide connecting each Camp Delaney Mae story with the spiritual thread already present in the story and Scripture references families can explore together.
The guide is designed for standard 8½ × 11 paper in portrait orientation and prints clearly in either color or black and white.
More family resources can grow here.
This page gives Camp Delaney Mae a permanent home for future discussion guides, family activities, teaching resources, and other printable companions without changing the stories themselves.
