Our Gentle Giraffe room is a glorious place to be! We are active in hands-on learning, understanding the needs of the preschooler. Our days are full of music, motion and fun as we discover the beauty of God’s Word and His handiwork. He loves us ALL the time, no matter how we feel or what we do. His love never changes. How wonderful! We will be exploring the wonders of the animal kingdom, learning sign language, making new friends, singing and moving, designing artwork and experiencing God’s love. Our class’ special traveling friend is Jimmy the Giraffe. He likes to visit new places and go home with our students. His journal is full of his adventures with the children. In our classroom, there are legos, a book nook, puzzles, a homemaking center, a truck track, a discovery table, and a bathroom for preschooler convenience. We are dedicated and experienced teachers and are delighted to welcome each child and share God’s love in a real way. Each little, Gentle Giraffe will also be spotlighted as student of the week, displaying how unique and precious God made them. Birthdays will be celebrated through the year also. We welcome you to come and joyfully jump into the fun!

Philippians 4:4-5:  “Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say rejoice.  Let your gentleness be evident to all.  The Lord is near”
