Little Musician, a new Farsi-language programme for children aged 4 –12, was recorded in late September and early October this year, to teach children Christian music and worship using stories from the Bible.
The programme’s presenter begins each episode by sharing a Bible story. She then teaches the children a relevant song, inviting the young viewers to play along at home with their own instruments.
Beautiful melodies
The first 13 episodes, lasting 15–20 minutes, will each teach a different Bible story.
‘We are teaching children to worship Jesus with beautiful melodies and Persian hymns’, says a SAT-7 PARS producer. ‘It is very important for children in Iran, who do not have the opportunity to attend church, to understand the importance of worship in Christian life.’
