Episode notes
Nursery As A Sacred Spiritual Space
- Angie frames nursery as a sacred space where the Spirit can teach toddlers about Christ as much as adults.
- She treats every child the same regardless of numbers and emphasizes inviting the Spirit over entertainment.
Interactive Holiday Plays For Toddlers
- Angie staged interactive Christmas and Easter musical plays in nursery to teach the nativity and resurrection stories by moving children room-to-room following a star.
- Leaders wore basic costumes, used props, and relied on short songs and movement to keep 18-month-to-3-year-olds engaged.
Keep Nursery Lessons Short Active And Spirit Led
- Keep lessons concise, active, and Spirit-led to match short attention spans; switch activities when children get squirrely.
- Use movement, singing, and tactile elements so 18-month-to-3-year-olds can participate rather than just watch.
