In November, our toddlers are learning about David. Our Bible story can be found at 1 Samuel 16:14-23. This month our toddlers will:
-learn that David was a shepherd boy who wrote songs to praise and thank God.
-learn that David used his music to make King Saul feel better
-praise God with music (we’ll be making our own instruments)
-find many opportunities and ways to say “Thank you, God.”

Our preschool/early elementary room teaches with a lectionary based curriculum so children in that room will be learning the same lessons as moms and dads in church.
