Today's Accomplishment

We have created a "Children's Corner" in the Atrium (gathering space) just outside of the sanctuary.  Adults have a tendency to get into conversations after worship and the table of sweet treats doesn't hurt!  Children were often bored and somewhat left out.  The Children's Corner has a table with the same treats as the adult tables and often a little something extra!  There is information about upcoming events and sign up sheets for various activities.  There are also two tables at child's level for coloring.

Today I organized 52 weeks worth of Children's Corner activity sheets. One side has a scripture reference, memory verse and picture to color (we have Crayons on the tables).  The opposite side of the sheet has instructions for parents to lead a Bible study at home during the week.  There are discussion questions, questions which encourage you to think of how you will incorporate the Bible lesson into your life and a craft.

I'm excited to see how these are received!
