Welcome to Elementary KidZone!
Kids in 1st-6th grades will meet in small groups with caring leaders who are background-checked and trained. Our leaders are intentional about building relationships with kids as they learn important biblical truths!
In our 1st/2nd grades and 3rd/4th grade small groups, we use the Wonder Ink curriculum which is created to be biblically-rooted and developmentally appropriate for these age groups. This curriculum is built on four core truths:
God knows me.
Jesus loves me.
The Holy Spirit leads me.
I am a child of God!
What Will My Kids Be Doing While in KidZone?
Our time is split into four sections:
1. Curiosity- Hands-on activities to spark curiosity and get kids thinking about the wonder of God.
2. Belief- A time of worship music, learning a memory verse, and an interactive dive into Scripture that guides kids into knowing God, exploring His big story, and marveling at His wonder.
3. Faith- An intentional conversation that helps kids see the wonder of God’s story and how it connects to their own.
4. Identity- An interactive worship response activity or game that creates space for God to remind kids that they are known, loved, led, and their lives can tell of God’s wonder.
Where Will My Kids Be During the Service?
-Kids will begin in their individual small group classrooms from 10:00-10:15am for the “curiosity'“ section. 1st/2nd grades meet in the Fellowship Hall. 3rd/4th grades meet in our blue trailers, classroom T5.
-Then, small groups (1st-6th grades) will come together for the “belief” section in our Fellowship Hall from 10:15-10:45.
-Kids will then return to their small group rooms for the “faith” and “identity” sections. This is where you will pick up your children at the end of service.
Each Sunday children will go home with resources to continue to grow their faith at home with parents who have the greatest impact on their child’s spiritual development. Also, be sure to follow us on IG and FB (@nocckidzone) for up-to-date information about what’s happening at KidZone.
We hope you’ll join us on a Sunday morning! When you check in at the kiosk, you will receive a name tag for your child and a matching parent tag. When you return after the worship service, your parent tag is your claim check to pick up your child. Safety is important to us in the KidZone, so this check out system is to ensure your child’s safety.

CURRENT SERIES IN ELEMENTARY KIDZONE
DATES: October 5 - November 2 - November 29
ELEMENTARY SERIES DESCRIPTION: Relationships can’t happen without communication, and our God is relational. He knows us and wants to be known by us. He is the God who speaks! Throughout His story, we see our Father talking to His kids. During our God Speaks series, we’ll explore four Old Testament stories of God communicating with His people. Whether in an audible voice or a gentle whisper, or through the advice of others, God speaks. And His words are always worth listening to!
We invite your family to join us this month. Together, let’s tune our ears to the voice of our loving Father in expectation that He will speak!
