Display Child Pages, title and excerpt on to homepage

  • I would like to do something like shown below, but don’t know the proper code. I basically want to pull the title and excerpt of child pages and display it on the homepage. I want to be able to list them going from left to right in <div> tags, and not just a laundry list which is why I would have the loop stop and start again. I’m pretty new to WP, so any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

    <?php get_page_children( $page_id=37, $pages )?>

 <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>

   <?php the_content(); ?>

endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();

 <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>

   <?php the_content(); ?>

endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();

    I feel like I’m getting closer, this is what I have so far. I just need this loop to work.

    <?php
                    //get children of page 37

                    $args=array(
                      'post_parent' => 37,
                      'post_type' => 'page',
                    );
                    $my_query = null;
                    $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
                    if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {

                      while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
					  echo '<h3>' . get_the_title() . '</h3>';
					  echo '<p>' . get_the_excerpt() . '</p>';

                       endwhile; }
                    wp_reset_postdata();?>
											<a href="#" class="button">Read More</a>
                                            <div class="ext_box program">
												  <figure></figure>
												  <div>
														  <ul class="list1">
																 <li><a href="#">Networking </a></li>
																 <li><a href="#">Criminal Justice </a></li>
														  </ul>
												  </div>
											</div>	

									 </li>
									 <li>
										<?php

                    $my_query2 = null;
                    $my_query2 = new WP_Query($args);
                    if( $my_query2->have_posts() ) {

                      while ($my_query2->have_posts()) : $my_query2->the_post();
					  echo '<h3>' . get_the_title() . '</h3>';
					  echo '<p>' . get_the_excerpt() . '</p>';

                       endwhile; }
                    wp_reset_postdata();?>
											<a href="#" class="button">Read More</a>
											 <div class="ext_box program">
												  <figure><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/1page_img2.jpg" class="img" alt="" /></figure>
												  <div>
														  <ul class="list1">
																 <li><a href="#">Link 1 </a></li>
																 <li><a href="#">Link 2 </a></li>
																 <li><a href="#">Link 3 </a></li>
														  </ul>
												  </div>
											</div>
									 </li>
