As little as possible. They will be moving from room to room, and unnecessary stuff can get lost easily.

Make sure you indicate any allergies on your child’s registration form. We have a daily snack and also provide Stauffer’s Original Animal Crackers as an alternative. If what we provide doesn’t work for your child, you are welcome to provide your own snack. Please give it to your child’s group leader at drop-off.

We usually finalize classes the weekend before VBS begins. An email will be sent out with each child’s class assignment. Unfortunately, spam filters can catch these emails, so please check your spam filter and add kids@nwbible.org to your safe senders list.

T-shirts are $9 and are not required, but most kids buy one…it’s fun to see a sea of kids wearing their VBS shirts. You can purchase them with cash or check. Sorry, no credit or debit cards.

$4 cash or check.

Come early on Monday. Since it’s the first day it takes a little longer to get checked in. Our opening sessions start at 9am and 6:15pm so make sure you arrive in time for them to get checked in and get down to the Worship Center for our opening. Your kids won’t want to miss it! We ask that you walk your child into the building and drop them off at their group (in the gym) each day.

Please park and come in to pick up your child(ren).

• Four-year-olds & PreK:
  • Will be dismissed a few minutes early from the Worship Center and will go with their leaders to the gym to await dismissal. Parents of 4s and PreKs will pick up their children in the gym. Look for signs to assist you, and remember your child’s class name if possible. They will be seated there, where they will be signed out on the class roster.
• K–6th Graders:
  • Will remain in the Worship Center. Please remember your child’s class name and pick them up in the Worship Center. There will be signs above the entry doors that show where each class is seated to aid you in finding your child’s location. Sign out your child on the class roster.

Please let your child’s leader know at drop-off if someone other than you is picking up your child.

We try to honor requests for your child to be with their friends. All our games, crafts and lessons are geared towards specific ages, so if there is a large age gap between children (more than one grade) we would ask that your child stays in their age appropriate group.

Bring your family any time between 5:15–6:15pm for an inexpensive dinner! All items cost just 50¢ each. Check back for the menu, we’ll post it when it’s finalized.

Yes, we want everyone to come back on Sunday, June 18 at 9 or 10:45am. Clayton Poland will be our special guest. He will lead Kid City (our Sunday morning program for kids) in a fast-paced, high energy and interactive game experience called Press Start.

No, but you are welcome to buy a shirt ($9) and a CD ($4). We also feature a missions project that we will be highlighting throughout the week. Feel free to give a donation for that project.

If your child turns four before the end of VBS, they can attend. Our cutoff date is Sunday, June 18.
