A toddler group for parents

What is it? Belly buttons

We are a group of parents who meet to be reminded of God's love for us and our children. We believe that children are a blessing from God and we look to him for guidance, joy, patience and wisdom.

What do we do?

There will be time for singing and dancing (optional) with our children, tea and coffee with cake, prayer (optional) and more tea and coffee. At each meeting we will have either a speaker, get creative or swap stories about how we do certain things at home with our kids. We also have a play area where children will be looked after during the talk.

What are the talk topics?

Sleeping, communicating with children, how to make time for God, toilet training, sex, etc.

Where?

The Vineyard Centre, 5 Sheepscar Court, Northside Business Park, Leeds, LS7 2BB

When?

Every Friday (term time only) from 9.45 - 11.15am.
