KINDER CHURCH

Last night (11 November) was the dress rehearsal for the upcoming opening of our children's wing of the new church addition. Following are a few photos of the facilities for the birth to kindergarten kids. There is another wing (upstairs) for the first thru sixth grade kids. We open this coming weekend! Several of the volunteers and nursery workers brought their kids to try out the security system, and to see if the planned procedures are workable.....
The main attraction is the indoor playground. This is HUGE! The bigger kids come here right after check in and get to play until the start of services.

This room is gigantic! I think you could drop a couple of houses in here and have room left over! The kids really gave it a workout.

There are dedicated spaces for each age kid. Comfort and security are paramount throughout the facility. This room is for the 2 year old kids.

This is one of the rooms dedicated to the 18 month old crowd. Lots of chairs for snacks, and there is another room just like this next door.

Colorful murals decorate the halls and the nursery rooms. There are two larger rooms in the kindergarten and 4 year old kids room that have stages!

While the big kids get to play on the slides and jungle gyms shown earlier, this is the toddler play ground.

The main sanctuary won't be open until February. It is also gigantic, seats over 4,000, and will be theater in the round. I will post photos of that when available...

Our grandkids will be able to attend here. Hannah and Hunter will be upstairs with the big kids, and Peyton will be down stairs with the infants thru kindergarten.

Security is always the first consideration in a facility such as this, especially after the episode in Colorado Springs, last year. Entering the facility where the kids are is allowed only with the badge made at check in. There are only two doors in, one upstairs and one down, and both of these are controlled by security.
