Leader Reflection

Steps

Step 1 Gathering for God's Story

  • music smart
  • picture smart
  • self smart
  • word smart

Gather the children around you and ask them if they think they are good listeners. If weather permits, take a walk together outdoors (or, if that’s not possible, walk around inside your church). Ask everyone to listen very carefully and identify the sounds they hear along the way. (You might want to list the sounds as you hear them.) Pause occasionally to close your eyes tight and just listen!
