Preschoolers are the busiest little creatures on the planet, and Fellowship Forney has a place and a plan just for them. Our preschoolers are divided into three groups on Sundays: 2 year-olds, 3 year-olds, and 4 & 5 year-olds who have not yet started Kindergarten. All classes are offered at both 9:00 am and 10:30 am. Because we believe children learn best by repetition, the same story is taught in both services but in different ways, with a new craft and activity.
Each group has a set of age-appropriate toys, books, and puzzles for opening play. This helps these little ones find their place in a fun environment. A typical schedule looks like this:
Playtime
Clean-up
Praise and Worship
Storytime
Craft to emphasize what we’ve learned in storytime
Preschool Playroom
Snack (which often re-emphasizes the lesson)
Video to once again re-emphasize the lesson
