KiDS Weekly Experience Guide & Parent Cue: week of October 11th
We know that parents have a lot to manage right now. As you navigate this unusual school year, we want to serve and support you as you guide your family this year. If you want to reinforce what your kids learned on Sunday throughout the week, make sure that you check out some of the weekly resources listed below.
For our Preschoolers, print out the Adventure Guide and use that throughout the week. These Adventure Guides are updated every week and provide questions for you to ask your kids. Kids can color the page as you review the memory verse and lesson and there is also a bonus activity that you can choose to do with your kids.
Our Elementary kids have God Times posted below that will help them review the bottom line and story throughout the week. These are age-specific devotionals that you can print off and do with your kids or even have them do on their own to help them establish the habit of spending time in God’s Word.
We hope you will find the resources below helpful as you lead your kids this week!
