This Sunday, we learned that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and all the people waved palm branches and yelled “Hosanna” to praise him. Jesus was happy to see the people because Jesus loves everyone! Who does Jesus love? Jesus loves everyone! We had so much fun this week celebrating this fun story. We played a game riding on a donkey around the room, and had delicious donkey shaped cookies.
Parents, talking to your child about Jesus’ death and resurrection can be a little intimidating- but don’t let it be. There are lots of great children’s Bibles that tell this story using kid-friendly language. There arealso resources that can make this story fun to learn, too. One of my favorite Easter activities for families is making resurrection cookies (click here for recipe) or telling the story through Resurrection eggs.
This was our last week working on our memory verse from John. Be sure to ask your child to say it with you one last time. “Love eachother as I have loved you.” John 15:12.

On Sunday morning, we learned that Jesus chose some special friends called disciples. He chose all different people to be his friends. He called to them, “Come Follow Me” and they did! Jesus wants us to follow Him too. We can show that we are following Jesus by loving others like Jesus does. Who does Jesus love? Jesus loves everyone!
This week, during snack time, our kids got to take an extra heart cookie home for someone they love. A simple gesture of sharing with others helps kids experience love first-hand. We also played follow the leader and used play dough to make heart shapes.
Parents, this month we have been focusing on showing love for everyone! When Jesus chose his friends, he chose people who were from all different backgrounds. Before bedtime, take some time out to help your child make a list of their favorite friends. Then pray with your child for each friend by name. Ask God to help your child show love for all of them through their actions.
Be sure to practice our memory verse. “Love (cross hands over heart) eachother (spread arms out) as I (point up for Jesus, because Jesus said this) have loved (cross hands over heart) you“(point out with both fingers). John 15:12 (hold hands open like a book) Have your child “show off” their memory by doing it on their own too. Be sure to give them lots of praise!

Feel free to invite your friends to come and hang out too. It’s a great opportunitity for stay at home parents to connect with a few other people.
Also, please note that we changed the Valentine Cookie Making Day to Friday, Feb. 12th at 10:00 a.m.. Come let your kids make a mess in our kitchen- instead of yours and take home some Valentine cookies to share with family and friends.

This week we continued learning about the Christmas story. We learned that Mary and Joseph traveled to Bethlehem. When they got there they couldn’t find a place to spend the night because no one had room for them. Guess where they slept? That’s right! They slept in a barn. When Jesus was born, Mary laid him in a manger.Jesus must have really loved us to give up heaven for a manger. How do we know God loves us? God gave us Jesus!
To help us remember this great story, we played a game with barn animals, made a cool jingle bell bracelet, and had a birthday party for Jesus!
Parents, this is a great time of year to make Jesus a priority in your home. During the Christmas season, kids can become very “me” focused. Help them remember that Christmas is all about Jesus by doing a few simple things. This week, set aside time to show love for someone else. Make up a plate of cookies and let your child deliver it to a neighbor or take it to someone who serves our community. Letting your childexperience the joyof giving will help them to know giving is better then getting.
Help your child with their memory verse this month: “God (point up) has given (hold hands out with palms up) a Son to us.” (cradle your arms, and rock them like you have a baby). Isaiah 9:6
