Our Guppies & Grown-ups program is offered for preschool and TK children (2-4-years old) and a caregiver. mommies, daddies, and all other caregivers welcome!
Faith formation is unique in the life of a preschool child. Faith Formation in these early years of life will directly support the ongoing growth in faith through life, and it is an important time. It is time and an education process that is most often referred to as one of religion-readiness.
First Steps of Faith
Stories of God’s Love is a religion-readiness program that prepares the preschool child by introducing the essential faith concepts, themes and values in a way that engages the child and utilizes the gifts and needs of this age level.
All of the material within this program is presented in an age-appropriate way with the particular educational needs of the young child in mind.
We will incorporate music videos to Christian songs with hand movements. Sample: Father Abraham (song with motions) by Listener Kids (youtube.com)
Along with story time we will complete age-appropriate crafts.
