Ages 7 & 8
Class Description: Moral Tales (7-8* years old)
Every day our children go forth into a complex world where they may be faced with difficult decisions and situations. Moral Tales provides children with spiritual and ethical tools to make choices and take actions that reflect their Unitarian Universalist beliefs and values. The stories in Moral Tales draw from many sources to activate and inform the children's learning how to make wise choices.
* Age by September is the preferred placement for children. Please speak to the Director of Lifespan Growth and Learning for any exceptions.

Taking it Home
Dear Parents,
This space is especially for you!
Do you ever wish you knew more about your child's class?
Would you like to support your child in bringing her learnings into her life, and to develop more connectedness between church and home?
When our classes begin in September, this space will provide a brief description of the week's session, suggestions for exploring the topic with your child, and for extending the topic at home through family activities during the week.
