WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT 

Have you ever had a time when a child came to you and was scared? Maybe it was your own child, a child in your classroom, or a child you were babysitting. Maybe they saw something scary on TV, had a nightmare, or were just worried about something in their life they felt powerless to fix.

WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT

Music has been a very central part of my families activities. I can’t even tell you how
many hours were spent taking one child or another to voice lessons, singing
competitions, band or choir practices and concerts, musical auditions, rehearsals, and
performances. Not to mention the evenings spent sharing favorite songs on You Tube
and family karaoke nights. I still love hearing my kids practicing keyboard or working
on a piece of music together. It’s probably one of the things I will miss most when they
are all out of the house.

When talking with someone the other day who said, “I just want to be happy!”  And I can certainly relate – who doesn’t want to be happy?  I’m not sure any of us wake in the morning saying to ourselves, “Oh now this would be a great day to be miserable – or unhappy!”

I recently had a parent ask me, “What makes King’s Kids Academy different than all the other Christian childcare centers?” The question gave me a moment of pause. I have no problem telling someone what is special about King’s Kids Academy. My answer is usually simply stated as, “It’s a place that is filled with the Holy Spirit and that presence touches everyone who enters, whether they are seeking it or not.” That is still an accurate answer to what makes KKA special. However, if I am asked to define what makes us unique among other Spirit-filled centers, that offers a different challenge. You may not know this, but I love a challenge.

How to Inspire Your Child to Explore Nature

Thanks to the current culture and the rise of electronic games, more children have been choosing to stay at home during the day than ever before.

A Family In Need

Hello Everyone,

I heard today of a family that lost everything in a fire last night! While they are not directly a part of King’s Kids Academy, they are connected to someone who is.
