October through March, on Thursday and Friday mornings children, along with their parents / guardians, enjoy playing together. Participants must be registered to attend.

Held in the Family Life Centerl, one of the featured play areas is the  “Nursery Gym,” complete with ramp, steps, and tunnel.  The kitchen area has a stove, refrigerator, microwave, sink and play food.  Another area has four “big trucks” made of solid maple wood, with blocks of all shapes for hauling and building.  Many other toys, such as “Sit ‘N Spins” and “Hoppity Hops” help children to develop gross motor skills while having fun.  

The last ten minutes of each session is “Circle Time,” with a short Bible story, finger plays and singing. Toddlers enjoy a snack of either animal cracker or pretzels as they listen to the Bible story.

The purpose of Toddler Gym is to:

*          provide opportunities for  children to learn and play with their caregivers and other children

*          help the children know that they are precious in God’s sight 

*       encourage parents / guardians to  know other families and to develop friendships

*        introduce the ministries of our church to families.

Call 625-2611 or email Chris Charles; chris@jcharlesconsulting.com for more information. Registration is during the month of September. This program is designed for children ages 6 months to 3 years.
