PARENTS/FACILITATORS
Give kids the opportunity to share what they have written in their journals and to ask any lingering questions. If you don’t know the answer to a question, look it up together with the child. Specific instructions for this time are outlined below.
STEP 1
Meet with each child individually. And ask the following questions:
- How did your Quiet Times go this week?
- What did you feel like God was telling you this week? (They can share their answers from their Quiet Time Response Guide if they want to - don’t pressure them).
- What questions did you have this week about the lessons or from your quiet times that haven’t been answered yet?
- Has this been a good week for you? Why or why not?
- What was your favorite thing that you learned this week?
STEP 2
Give them a stamp or sticker in their journal for work well done today.
STEP 3
Give them their Mom/Dad and Me Journal (for writing notes back and forth between them and mom or dad [or facilitator]). Each Friday they will get their journal and can write a note to Mom/Dad and then return the journal to Mom/Dad. During the week Mom/Dad will respond to their note in the journal and return it to them on Friday with a hug and a smile :)
