Summer of Playful Kindness!         Coming soon! 
We'll be downloading videos and playlists bi-weekly throughout the summer on our Facebook page and on our NEW YouTube page.  This very flexible curriculum will ignites a playful spirit as your child has opportunities to practice kindness.   There are six sections:​
​Kindness is Welcoming            Kindness is Compassionate
Kindness is Caring                    Kindness is Thankful
                                                                       Kindness is Loving                    Kindness Can Be Hard 

Each section contains five parts: HEAR, WONDER, PRAY, PLAY, and ACT. Children can watch Mrs. Jennifer share the Bible Story, and enjoy prayers, games, activities, and acts of kindness with their family.  Starting June 13 we'll drop a new section every other week on Sundays. Choose which parts bring you and those little people at home joy: and use those all summer long!  Links are coming soon!  ​

​What do the following things have in common? Baking macaroons, breaking an twenty game losing streak (Sorry Tigers), and parenting. Answer: they are all really difficult, but so rewarding in the end. (Think about how great it is to bite into the perfectly crispy shell of a macaroon and then taste that deliciously sweet and soft center!) Let’s focus on parenting for a moment. Parenting kids of any age is challenging and rewarding simultaneously. We want you to know that YOU GOT THIS and offer a few resources to help you become a better parent. You’ll find those resources below in our Top 3. We’ve also heard that caffeine is key to improving your parenting skills too; so read to the end of today’s newsletter to see how you might win free Starbucks on Friday!
