Scribbles 2025
Come join the fun!
In January 2025 we start our Tuesday – Thursday schedule.
The time remains 9:30 to 11:30 but we are now offering a two day per week program.
If you do not want to do 2 days, you can choose to do only the one day. Our rates will be $30.00 a month for 2 days a week or $15 a month for just one day a week. If you have questions please contact me: joverholt@laurelumchurch.org or call /text 217-652-8137.
Our program for preschool aged children includes activities, music, crafts, games, story time, and a snack. Scribbles is a safe nurturing environment where children experience the love of God and the wonders of His creation. This is a great time for parents to shop, run errands or just have some down time for themselves while their children are in a loving educational setting.
If you know of families, friends and neighbors that may benefit from this program, please pass the information on. All pre-school age children are welcome.
Register in person or by calling 217-525-1866.
Confirmation sunday is February 2nd
