When you see the smiles on the children's faces at Northern Pines you will know there is something special about the Children's Program.
Morning Program
Each morning, parents drop off their sons and daughters on the way to their own morning sessions and activities. Each child's class is led by caring adult teachers and assisted by CCAs (Child Care Assistants).
Throughout the week, children learn more about God's Word through Bible stories, songs, crafts, and fun camp activities including tram rides, field trips, and swimming. Every week ends with a special program performed by the children for the adults Friday morning.
Child Care Assistants are there to serve your family. They'll watch your children, play with them, and have them in bed when you return.
The morning program incorporates songs from Seeds Family Worship — setting word for word scripture to song for our little ones to hide in their hearts! Songs include The Mouth (Matthew 12:34), Treasure (Matthew 6:20-21), Out of the Mud/He Set My Feet on the Rock (Psalm 40:12), and More than Conquerors (Romans 8:37). Songs are available on our YouTube channel as well as several streaming services. You may also purchase albums from the Seeds Family Worship website.
Northern Pines also has so much for you and your children to do during afternoon free time — grab some ice cream at a snack shop, make some crafts, take a hike to the General Store (for some penny candy!) or spend some time soaking in the sun and lake at the beachfront. Your children will love running around with their friends and enjoying the activities around Green Lake. Additional highlights of the week include annual fishing contests, Family Day activities, and a special visit to the Wilderness for 3rd graders!
CCAs are also available during the afternoon—for $10/half hour. Afternoon childcare is a great option for couples who want to spend some extra time alone without their children, or want to do outdoor activities with older children while younger children are napping.
Evening Childcare
The Children's Program continues in the evening, when a CCA assigned to your family will come to your door! These are students (age 12–18) who are there to serve your family. They'll watch your children, play with them, and have them in bed when you return after the evening session and whatever activities you choose to do.
