Parent's Role

At the Club

Parents play an important role in the spiritual formation of a child. You are the main influencers to your child. In AWANA, we partner with parents to build the foundation on which the children's faith will grow. 

Parents review the handbook chapter, help children to understand the content, encourage them to remember the memory verse at home and apply what they learned in their daily life in a practical life. 

T&T and Sparks

• Support your child in working through his or her lesson activities in the handbook

• Encourage your child in memorizing the lesson's memory verse(s) by practicing with them or her, and celebrating his.  or her success. Check out the tips to help children to memorize bible verses.

• Connect with your child over what he or she is learning. 

  • The T&T Parent Pages T&T parents to start conversations with their children. The pages below include lesson summaries of this term and are great resources for conversation starters. 

•  Seek help from your child's leader if you have questions, and receive communication from him or her on your child's discipleship experience at Awana.

Cubbies 

Cubbies encourages parental involvement. Your child’s handbooks feature parent-child activities for home. You will lead your child through handbook sections, called Bear Hugs, to prepare for the next club gathering. Each Bear Hug includes optional activities, called “Under the Apple Tree,” for reviewing Bible verses and lessons learned earlier. An audio CD included in your child’s handbook has review material that you can listen to together.

At club, your Cubbie will review the verse you helped teach at home. Working through the handbook with your child develops your spiritual leadership and helps you instill your child with a lifelong biblical worldview.
