KiDS Weekly Experience Guide & Parent Cue: week of January 10th
PRESCHOOL:
Throughout the month of January, our preschoolers will be learning about the story of the paralyzed man whose friends bring him to Jesus to be healed. If you have the YouVersion Bible app on your phone, you may be aware that there are thousands of reading plans to help you spend time in God’s Word. Life Church has a 6 day devotional for each series that our preschool environments are using. To access this month’s reading plan, go to the bible app on your phone, search under plans for Through the Roof (Bible App for Kids) or simply click here.
ELEMENTARY:
If you have kids in our Elementary environments, we would suggest trying this 14 day reading plan, I Can Learn the Bible: The Joshua Code for Kids. This plan works through some of the foundational beliefs of the Christian faith in kid friendly language. As mentioned above, you can find this on the YouVersion Bible app or by clicking here.
We hope that you find these resources helpful in leading your families! Have a great week!
