Lifespan Learning "Dream Team" Meeting

The Lifespan Learning "Dream Team" will be meeting this Thursday, May 26th at 6:30pm in the Chapel.

We are excited to move forward as we imagine the possibilities for the future for our Lifespan Learning programs and how we hope to encourage the development of our UU Faith across the lifespan.

This meeting will focus on planning the 2011-2012 program year and how we can use our individual gifts to help our programs grow and thrive!
*******

Are you interested in working with our children and youth, developing curriculum and discussing our UU religious education philosophy? All are welcome; join us!

Come dream with us, come play with us. We will chose our destination and discover together what gifts we have to share on the journey.

See you there!
June Urdy, Board Liaison to Lifespan Learning
and Amy Peterson Derrick, Director of Lifespan Learning

Book sorting!

Did you know that the stories and books that surround our children and youth not only provide time for family connection and enhance a sense of imagination and adventure, but they can also help kids understand our UU Principles and values? 

From The Lorax to The Rainbow Fish to the It's Okay to be Different Book,authors have helped us to teach our children lessons about caring for our earth, sharing our gifts, honoring diversity and beyond. 

Which books do you think should be on the shelf of every UU kid? Which books should be on our shelves here at UU Flint?

On Saturday, May 28th from 10:30am-1:30pm, join us as we explore our church's current collection of children's books and begin to develop a wish list for a book drive in the fall!

Bring a list of your favorite books, a bag lunch and let's build our dream UU Library! 


*Make it a family activity; children and youth are encouraged to accompany their family so that they may offer their expertise as well! Childcare is available by request only for our youngest children. Please RSVP no later than May 26th to director-lifespanlearning@uuflint.org
