This class focuses on growing friendships, play, love of stories, and Biblical lessons we can learn through it all. For example: Baby Wren and the Great Gift will teach kids that God has a special purpose for each of their lives. Petunia Beware teaches us that the grass may not actually be greener on the other side and how we can be thankful for what we have. The Night Gardener shows us the blessing of doing kind and beautiful things for others. Some books will teach the months of the year, seasons, and counting as well. We'll throw in some fun ones too, Dragons Love Tacos, Where the Wild Things Are, We Were Tired of Living in a House, and more! We will sing songs, do crafts and play games related to the books we read.
