Kids Town
Kids Town @HOME
We believe being together matters. Kids Town is (usually) a Sunday morning experience that allows parents to enjoy the adult service while their children encounter Jesus in a safe and engaging environment.
We want to support your family as you continue to grow in your love for Jesus during this time. So despite challenging circumstances, we are coming up with new ways to connect and we are optimistic that you will find these engaging and helpful.
How can my family engage with Kids Ministry during this season of COVID-19? The challenge is real! But not impossible:
- Join Miss Amy and Miss Leiko immediately after service for a Post Service Wrap-Up aimed at families with young children.
- Check out our Kids Ministry Facebook page.
- Check your inbox! Our Kids Ministry Team uses email as a way to stay connected!
- Email, text, and/or call to connect with our Kids Ministry Leaders.
How To Connect
Connect with Miss Amy (The Park) or Miss Leiko (Kids Town) by sending email to kids@capecodchurch.com
JOIN US FOR THE CREATE SERIES
CREATE Something New w/ Kids Min!
Join the Kids Min family as we journey through the next 3 weeks (4 Sundays) taking a look at how God desires to create something new in each of us.
We will be using Isaiah 43:19 as our guiding verse.
“For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.”
Check back weekly for a new set of activities and challenges. If you feel so inclined, join us on Facebook and share stories from your journey.
TO DO
Week of January 18 -23
MONDAY
CREATE a Wellness Wheel
Watch this Wellness Webinar w/ Melissa Noonan. Then sit down with your kids and make your own wellness wheel. Putting it down on paper helps you be more intentional about addressing these areas in your life!
It may be hard to create a wellness wheel for young kids who don’t know what their emotional, physical and spiritual needs are. For our littles, you could have them draw a circle (or trace a circular shaped object) and then you (the parent) could fill in activities that promote emotional, physical, etc activities. Hang it on the refrigerator and have the child put a sticker on the wheel when you have done one of those activities! Here is an example of a wellness wheel for littles! https://www.
TUESDAY
CREATE community
Using your wellness wheel from Monday’s activity, look at the Relational Health section and, using one of your ideas, reach out and connect with someone!
Play date! Join Miss Amy for a song, dance and story time via zoom!
WEDNESDAY
CREATE a bible reading habit
Read about God’s preservation of the Israelites as they left Egypt. Exodus 13-14.

Read “The Day God Made You” by Rory Feek. Or one of your own about God creating each and everyone one of us special.
THURSDAY
CREATE a memorization habit
Help your child (and YOU) memorize our series theme verse from Isaiah 43:19.
Last week we started with the first sentence. Let’s work on the next part.
“See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?”
Help your littles memorize Isaiah 43:19 with motions. See (point to your eyes) I (point to yourself) have already begun (point to your wrist like you have a watch on)! Do you (point to your child) not (shake your finger back and forth) see it? (put your hand up to your forehead like you’re looking for something)
