Hi Parents and Grandparents!
The month of November we
will be focusing on saying, "Thank You, God." I love to hear
preschoolers say their prayers because they are always thanking God for
everything. "Thank You God for my sister. Thank You God for my mommy and
daddy. Thank You God for my cat. Thank You God for....." They are so
sweet and so honest. I remember thinking when my children were little, I
hope that they never forget to be thankful for everything.
When
is the last time you said “Thank You” to God? Yesterday at the dinner
table? Or was it last night before bed? Did your toddler hear you
thanking Him? Does she know you are thankful, too?
Model a thankful
heart this month and watch your child join in the fun while growing in
gratitude. You could even start a “Thankful Tree” on the kitchen wall
where you draw or write something you’re thankful for on a colorful
leaf. When you add it to the wall, you say “Thank You, God” in front of
your whole family.
This Sunday, November 2, 2014, your preschooler will learn that:
God made the water and we are thankful. Genesis 1:6-10
MEMORY VERSE - “I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart.” Psalm 111:1, ESV
BASIC TRUTH - God made me.
KEY QUESTION - Who do you thank for everything?
BOTTOM LINE - Thank You, God, for everything.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Don't forget to set (Fall Back) you clocks an hour Saturday night. You gain an extra hour of sleep.
December 12 - Kids Night Out

Once your child is in the tub, tell him to close his eyes while you put the rocks in the water with him. His job is to find the rocks! Want to make it even harder? Add bubble bath when you run the bath water. Your child will have to feel around for the rocks to find them.

Who Helps You Do Big Things? - Family Plus PS
Hi Parents and Grandparents of Preschoolers!
Here is a fun activity that you can do with your preschooler to help with this week's story. Look for big things your child can do each time you get in and out of the car. Ask him to open the car door, climb in his car seat, or even buckle his own seat belt. Praise him for doing such big things. Ask him, “Who helps you do big things?” and encourage him to say, “God helps me do big things!” Continue to look for big things he can do while running errands. Help you at the grocery store, that’s a big thing. Entertain a younger sibling, that’s a really big thing! Or even drop the books into the return slot at the library. All of these things are just the beginning of the big things God is going to help your child do!
This Sunday, October 12, 2014, your preschooler will learn that :
God helps David protect his sheep from a lion and a bear. 1 SAMUEL 17:34-37
MEMORY VERSE - “We have our Lord our God to help us.” 2 Chronicles 32:8, NLT
BASIC TRUTH - God loves me.

I Need Help Doing BIG Things! Family Plus - PS
Hi Parents and Grandparents of Preschoolers!
The month of October we will be focusing on God is always there to help us do big things. Some times us grown ups think that these preschool lessons are just for preschoolers, we can not be more wrong. He’s there to help us every step of the way too. Isn’t that awesome? It gets me excited just thinking about it!
Remember when you were a kid and you COULDN’T WAIT to be a grown-up? You were going to stay up late and eat all the chocolate chip cookies you wanted. Well, you can do those things now, but being a grown-up is more than that isn’t it? Being a grown-up means you have to deal with some pretty big things. There’s the mortgage, work, family and let’s not forget diapers. The cost of diapers alone is enough to make you pull your hair out!
There are many, many big things we encounter as grown-ups, but we need to remember that we’re not facing them alone. No! Right by our side is the great, big God who made us.
This Sunday, October 5, 2014, your preschooler will learn that :
God helps Samuel find David, who is the new chosen king. 1 SAMUEL 16:1-13
MEMORY VERSE - “We have our Lord our God to help us.” 2 Chronicles 32:8, NLT
BASIC TRUTH - God loves me.
KEY QUESTION - Who helps you do big things?
BOTTOM LINE - God helps me do big things.
