The children between ages 3-11 meet all together at the beginning of service for an open session. Afterwards, they divide into two groups, ages 3-5 and ages 6-11.
For this open session, the children engage in the following activities:
Worship
The kids sing a couple of children’s Christian worship songs at the beginning.
Offering
After worship, the children have an opportunity to give their offering.
Memory Verse
The children are sent home with a Bible verse to memorize
each week. They recite their verses together in the open session.
Welcome New People
In the open session, newcomers are made welcome by the teacher and other children.
Praise Reports
This is an opportunity for the children to share with one another what good things God has done in their lives within the past week.
Games
There are various games that the children play before splitting up into their two groups. Some games have a point system where the children accumulate a certain level for rewards such as pizza parties.
After the open session, the children divide up into the two age groups 3-5 and 6-11. They have a lesson from the Bible, and then have an activity on the lesson afterwards. The curriculum usually has a take-home page for the children to colour or some other art/craft which is related to the lesson. There are slide projector pictures to explain the lesson, and the stories are displayed on an overhead projector so that children can read them along with the teacher. Some lessons have illustrations with puppets as well.
After the lesson, the children work on their take-home craft and then have a snack before their parents pick them up.
