RIVERSTONE KIDZ
PLANTING SEEDS OF GOD'S LOVE IN KID'S HEARTS SO THEY WILL KNOW JESUS, GROW TO BE LIKE HIM, AND MAKE HIM KNOWN
FIRST TIME?
You'll be able to check your kids in at our Kids entrance: a few basic questions to cater our care for your kids, then they will be off to a safe and exciting time with our trained volunteers! You will recieved a unique security sticker when you check your child in - and all of our volunteers are background checked before they can serve in our classrooms.
NURSERY
Our nursery is for children ages 0-3. Children will have access to a toddler slide and mini ballpit, kitchen, and other age appropriate toys and activities. Snacks are provided.
PRE-K
Our PreK class is for children ages 3-Kindergarten. We start out with free-play in our PreK classroom. Then we join the Elementary class for worship in the big elementary room. After worship we return to our classroom for a snack and Bible Story Time. After our Bible story, we will do a craft, play a game, and complete an activity before finishing our time together with more free play.
ELEMENTARY
Our Elementary class is geared for children in 1st-5th grade. After we share our worship time with the PreK class, we DIG IN to our Bible Lesson. We watch a brief lesson video, have snack, hear a Bible story, play some games, and do a craft all centered around the theme of the day. Sometimes we even do science experiments to illustrate the Bible point! Loads of interactive fun is had by all-teachers included!
