Snack & Allergy Policy
If your child has a food allergy, please let us know and pick up a yellow allergy bracelet from the check-in area for your child to wear. Early Childhood classes do have a snack time, and those snacks may include plain Cheerios, Goldfish crackers, animal crackers or pretzels. Please check the campus webpage to see what is specifically offered at each campus.
Classrooms & Curriculum
Early Childhood Ministry is divided into classes by age which are led by screened, trained leaders. We begin introducing curriculum in our TWOs class to help them catch their first glimpse of who God is. The curriculum is an annual cycle of Bible lessons that is repeated each year as the child moves up through THREEs and FOURs to continue building a solid foundation of Biblical truth.
