Discovery Club/Kid'z Zone Newsletter-March 2014

·         Discovery Club and Kid’z Zone Reminders:
o   Discovery Club is for 4 year old Preschoolers.
o   Kid’z Zone is for children currently in Kindergarten, 1st, or 2nd grade. 3rd graders and above stay in worship. Please help us by not sending your older children to Kid’z Zone.
o   Toys: We’ve had an increase in toys being brought to both Discovery Club and Kid’z Zone. Teachers have everything your child needs during these extended sessions. Please do not bring toys to children’s church. They are a distraction to our children.
o   Food: We have many children with life threatening food allergies. Please do not send children with food of any kind to children’s church to help protect our students with allergies.
o   Behavior: We want Discovery Club and Kid’z Zone to be a safe, fun, and exciting environment where our children can grow deeper with Christ in an age appropriate way. Recently, we have had an increase in horseplay that can cause our children to get hurt. And we’ve had a rise in disrespectful and rude behavior towards our leaders and other children. Help us by encouraging your children to listen and be respectful during Discovery Club and Kid’z Zone. We are excited to have so many children in our groups, and we thank you for helping us maintain an environment that is safe and enjoyable for everyone especially the volunteers who prepare to teach each week!
·         THE GREAT EGG HUNT 2014!:  It is time to start collect Easter Eggs again! When you bring in your FILLED PLASTIC EGGS, you will sign them in on the Great Egg Race Sign in Sheet. You will be put your name, child's grade, and number of filled eggs. The class with the most filled eggs will be specially recognized on April 16 at a pizza party!!!! Let the Great Egg Race BEGIN!
·         Holy Week Family Devotions: Next month, Holy Week Crafts and Family Devotionals will be going home with each child in BBC Kids. This craft and daily devotionals are for you to use with your family from Palm Sunday, April 13, culminating in Easter Sunday. We encourage you to add to your craft every day, and post what you are learning to our Facebook, BBC Kids, and our Twitter, @BallardsvilleBC, #BBCKids. Everything you need for the craft and devotionals are included in the pack so make sure you take your family Easter devotions home during Holy Week!
·         The Gospel Project: We started a brand new quarter of the Gospel Project today! So that means your child should have gotten special Gospel Project Cards to take home! If you didn’t get a set of cards, please see Don Wright, Elizabeth Horne, or any Sunday School leader to get your set of cards! These cards are great to use with our weekly family devotions that are posted to our blog, http://bbckidsofballardsvillebaptist.blogspot.com/. We post devotionals for you and your family to continue the conversation each week at home!
