BABY QUEST: January Lessons
Baby QUEST is Reston Bible Church’s ministry to the youngest members of our Body.
Each month, we will feature a guide for your family to use with children ages 0-2. The guide includes follow up activities, a craft or sensory activity, recommended reading, a song, and other tips that are uniquely tailored to the development of infants and toddlers.
The guide follows the themes we are teaching in our nursery classes, giving you an opportunity to connect and reinforce the ideas taught at home. Because children this age need repetition, each activity can be done multiple times throughout the month to continue to press it upon your child’s memory as they grow!
This month, we’re focusing on the story of David. Children will learn about how God helped David defeat the bad giant Goliath. They will start to identify the concepts of good and bad, learning that God is good and powerful even over very bad things.
Big Idea:
God is Strong!
Scripture Focus:
1 Samuel 17
