Little Explorers: Infancy - VPK
After checking in, you have the option of taking a pager with you into service. It will vibrate and light up if we need you during service time for any reason. You are welcome to help your kids into their rooms, especially the first time you come, so you can see our welcoming areas and meet our team members! After that, we do encourage parents to allow us to bring the children to their rooms in order to maintain a secure building and help facilitate a smooth drop-off.

The lessons for our VPK kids are from the GO! Curriculum, which provides interactive lessons for the kids & changes the creative storytelling methods every 4-5 weeks. Your kids in VPK - 5th grade in Safari Kids will usually learn the same lesson, or at least will be learning about the same period in the Bible, but in different ways! Visit our Safari Kids Online page to find out what our different groups are learning and experiencing right now!
