Approximately 30 kids, plus adult chaperones, enjoyed an afternoon of crafts, games and snacks themed around the Valentine’s Day motif.

What do pajamas, popcorn, and the Grinch have in common? Answer:  They were all found at Linder Road in the fellowship hall on Saturday, December 3 at the Kids Care Group Christmas party. It was a festive time as over 30 children enjoyed spending several hours together doing some fun activities and eating some sweet treats.  The activities included making Christmas tree ornaments, playing a gift exchange game, and enjoying a snack with hot cocoa, cupcakes, and cookies. As the finale of the party, the animated original film “How the Grinch stole Christmas!” was shown (popcorn included, of course!).  It was a lively, laughter-filled afternoon, as the children made their ornaments, exchanged gifts, and enjoyed each other’s company, forming friendships with one another that we hope will last forever.
