Olivia got invited by a friend of preschool to a vacation bible school that Brooke (the friend) attends this week. It is not too far from here, obviously free of charge but unfortunately in the evening from 5:30 to8 pm.
At first, Olivia did not want to go but later she changed her mind and wanted to go when I would stay there, too.
So I called Brooke's Mom back to let her know that Olivia would be okay when I would stay (and so would Jonah) and we agreed to be there.
At first my kids where shy but then they had a blast.
First they learned a bible verse:
'Love your Lord,
love your neighbor!'
and the teacher explained what this verse means in giving examples and had a little play (Himmel und Hoelle) with it.
Story time followed (with the help of puppets) about a good Samaritan who helped the weak
when nobody else did.
Then the gang of 17 kids had some snack and finally got dressed in old men's button down shirts for the craft of the day: making your own T-Shirt.
Back we got into the church and the kids got to sing songs.
Pooped but happy Olivia and Jonah got home and they both want to go back tomorrow!!
Of course, my boy jumping around while everybody else tries to do the movements...Olivia is somewhere in the background
