Overview
Babies and toddlers are soaking in the world around them. They're learning about faces and sounds. They're building relationships and learning to trust. And they can begin to learn simple concepts like Jesus cares for them, Jesus helps them, and he loves them!
With babies and toddlers being so active, getting the entire room to pay attention to a "lesson" isn't feasible. So this easy-to-digest guide provides practical ways for your nursery workers to help the littlest of God's family start learning about his great big love for them.
Introducing little ones to Jesus starts with creating the environment, helping nursery workers understand their purpose, and helping parents and babies/toddlers feel safe when they get there. This guide helps with all that—and provides you with simple ideas for using props such as toys, pictures, books, and music to start teaching babies and toddlers about Jesus!
