We offer children’s and multigenerational programs often on Thursday evenings, following the Community Night Dinner at 5:30 that is open to all. This is when our main “curriculum” based programs for children occur, and we ask for families to register and commit to regular attendance for these classes.
Lessons of Loss: for ages 5-10
Thursdays 6:30-7:30
September 25th-November 20th
In this 8 week class children will explore the important subject of death. Lessons will explore how change and loss are part of life, that death is bodies stopping working, that grief and hurt are normal and OK, how important it is to find ways to say goodbye well and to remember the lost, and what sources of resiliency and healing are. This class tackles a big tough topic in an age appropriate way, and is appropriate for children who have experienced loss and for those who have not done so yet.

Growing Anti-Racist Kids: for ages 5-10
Thursdays 6:30-7:30
January 15th- March 19th
The important goal of the curriculum is for children to respect and value difference in skin shades while recognizing the need to promote love and justice for all. The first 6 lessons proceed from self-awareness, family differences, friendships at school and in neighborhoods, church beliefs around respect and diversity, recognition of one’s community, and of the world. Each lesson connects to UU values, in a language for children’s understanding. As children in this age group need concrete experiences, each lesson provides an engaging activity and relevant children’s book which illustrates the goals. Ultimately, we aim to help children to recognize that persons have far more qualities than their appearances, that the possibilities of truly knowing, or knowing about them, far exceeds looking at them or at their pictures.
