What can I do at home to help prepare my child for Sundays at The MET @ Fry Road?
• Speak enthusiastically about church before getting to the classroom. • Always feed children before they are dropped off in their classroom. • Communicate any concerns and special instructions about your child to the staff. • Verbally communicate any food allergies to the staff as well as writing them on the sign-in sheet. If a child has food allergies, you may bring a snack alternative. • When dropping off your child, do not linger. Even if your child is crying, it is best to drop him or her off and leave. The sooner you leave, the faster your child will recover. • Be consistent in coming to your group or activity. Your child needs to become comfortable away from you and trust the environment of The MET and our volunteers. • Get to know your child’s Life Group teacher. You will feel much more comfortable if you know the men and women you are entrusting with your child and your reassurance will then be conveyed to your child.
