Hello kidSTART Friends!

You have helping hands! I have helping hands! We all have helping hands. God made our hands to help others!

Preschoolers spend a lot of time surrounded by people who help them—their parents, their older siblings, their teachers. And, they love to learn all about community helpers like policemen, firemen and construction workers. They are just learning that they can help too. There’s nothing sweeter than a little voice piping up, saying “I help!” when you’re unloading the dishwasher or doing the laundry.

kidSTART - April

Hello, kidSTART Friends!

Jesus is alive. Wow! That news really shook up the world. It changed everything. In fact, you could call it “The Great Shakeup.”

Our Bottom Line this month is, “Jesus wants me to tell others about Him.” We’re starting the month sharing the Great Commission with our preschoolers. We want them to get excited about telling others about Jesus and how much He loves them. We’re encouraging preschoolers to, “Go tell everyone, everywhere about Jesus.”

kidZONE: April = FRIENDSHIP

Friendship is spending time with someone you trust and enjoy. Just as Jesus spent time with His friends so they could get to know Him better, we can build trust and have fun with our friends as we spend time with them.

But we often take friendship for granted. We have friend requests on Facebook and conversations through email that make us feel hyper-connected with anyone on the other side of the Internet connection. However, real friends are Stuck Like Glue and won’t let go when times get tough.

March Parent Cue

Hello, kidSTART Friends!

Every time I think about the amazing gift God gave us, I just have to say, “Wow!” I mean, think about it. God sent His Son to die for you and for me. Pause on that a moment. It will make you say, “Wow!” too.

Wonder - Wow! - March 201

kidZONE: March = Honesty!

God told Abraham that he would be the father of a great nation of people—he was. God told the Israelites that He would provide for them in the desert—He did. God told Joshua that the wall of Jericho would fall if the people marched around it for seven days—it did. God told Mary that she would have a baby boy—she did. Jesus said He would die and rise again three days later—HE DID!!!!

kidSTART - February

“How wide and high and long and deep is the love of Christ,” Ephesians 3:18, NIV. Can you measure it? That’s what we’re investigating this month! Can we even measure how much Jesus loves us? How big (picture a preschooler’s arms open wide) is His love?

You and I know we can’t measure Jesus’ love. It’s way too big, but we’re going to have fun trying this month with our preschoolers as we celebrate the month of love by celebrating the One who loves us the most.

kidZONE: February - PEACE

When sin entered God’s Magnificent Paradise, our relationship with Him was broken. God’s love for us was so great that He was willing to sacrifice to restore the relationship. God proved He cared about peace when He sent His Son to pay for our sins. Peace is part of God’s character. And He wants us to reflect peace in our relationships with others. Peace is proving you care more about each other than about winning an argument. Peace is more than just “not fighting” and saying the right things to keep people happy.
