Children in our Nemo Room are typically in their preschool to early elementary school years.

Why Do We Invest in Teaching Young Children About God?

Many people believe that playing with kids at church is enough and that taking the time to teach, create games, or worship is too much trouble for too few results. These children are just young and have such small attention spans. They can’t learn about God. Right?  — Not Really.

Research shows that the early years are the most impressionable time of a person’s life.  It is during these young years that values, beliefs, and behaviors are formed which will often stick with a person for the rest of his or her life.  The early years are crucial for developing a child’s spiritual, social, intellectual, and moral foundation.  This is when kids are most open to learning new things and have an unbelievable amount of trust in the principles taught them.  It is also during this time that parents and guardians are looking for guidance and help in their child’s development. When young children are taught biblical truths, it has a direct impact on the entire family’s relationship and spiritual growth.

The curriculum that we chose is designed to reach kids and direct them toward becoming fully-devoted followers of Christ.   Through creative Bible teaching, music, life application activities, the kids will begin to understand that Jesus really existed and that He loves them personally.  This will be a wonderful foundation for them to enter into a loving, personal relationship with God.
