http://www.KidStuf.com (where you are right now!), is an online experience for kids and parents! KSOL not only has great stuff for kids like games, music you can download, and Gordo’s blog. It also has stuff your family can do together, like our own KidStuf version of YouTube called FamFilms and lots of other super-fun activities! But one of the most important aspects of this site is that it has everything a parent will need to help their family apply the Big Idea all month long with weekly videos, downloadable podcasts, small group curriculum and much more!

 

KidStuf Live is where kids and parents learn together about God’s Big Ideas! It is a monthly, 45-minute, fun, interactive, multi-media shared experience designed for families.

 

The KidStuf Take-Out is a creative application tool designed to assist and equip families as they apply the Big Idea in their home, all month long.

 

It’s something that every parent wants their kid to learn. We would like to say that we came up with these ideas first, but actually, they are God’s Big Ideas, such as self- control, honesty, patience, and gratitude . There is a different Big Idea each month that is the over-riding theme in KidStuf and UpStreet. Every element of KidStuf and UpStreet is centered on the Big Idea.

 

KidStuf exists to partner with parents. We believe that parents are ultimately responsible for the spiritual development of their children (Deuteronomy 6:4-9). We also recognize that parents have a whole lot more time with their kids than anyone at church. In fact, each year kids spend about 3,000 hours with their parents versus the 40 or so that they will spend attending church on Sunday.  As a result, no one has more influence over a child than his or her parent. Because of this, we believe that what happens at home is more important than what happens at church.  We believe that it is our role to partner with parents by providing a plan that will give them the tools they need to lead their kids spiritually.   This plan is launched at KidStuf Live on the first Sunday of the month. During the rest of the month, it continues with UpStreet, KidStuf Take-Out and KidStuf Online.

Kids (Kindergarten through 5th grade) AND their parents should come together after UpStreet and main service.

These two environments are synched together to provide the best experience possible for your family! The same kids that go to KidStuf Live also attend UpStreet. In both of these environments, they are learning about the same Big Idea. KidStuf Live is a monthly, shared experience for families that launches the Big Idea for the month. KidStuf Online and KidStuf Take-Out combine with KidStuf Live to motivate, equip, and inspire PARENTS to apply the Big Idea at home all month long! 

 

UpStreet happens every Sunday during the main service. It is where kids meet in small groups with other kids their age and connect with an adult small group leader.  Each week they are taught a different Bottom Line and Bible story that focuses on a different aspect of the Big Idea.

KidStuf Live happens immediately following the 9:00 and 11:00 services on the first Sunday of every month! In order to have the best experience, it is important that children attend UpStreet before KidStuf Live! This ensures that kids get to UpStreet and KidStuf Live on time and that parents get to the main service on time.

By coming to KidStuf Live! During each production the KidStuf Take-Out is introduced and explained. Every family who comes to KidStuf Live receives a KidStuf Take-Out . (On the first Sunday of the month, Take-Out’s are only available at KidStuf Live)

 

If you are unable to attend KidStuf Live, you can get the KidStuf Take-Out on the second Sunday of the month at the KidStuf Drive-Thru, located right outside the main UpStreet entrance. Check out the KidStuf Take-Out page on this site for more info on what’s going on this month!

Your child will be sitting with you wherever you choose to sit! We ask that families with older children sit on the floor at the front of the stage in the KidStuf Theater. We want to make sure we have enough seats for families with younger children!
