b'Did you know your Awana club can combine age groups?Awana is for all children and churches, no matterthe size of your congregation or building. If there arent enough precious Cubbies and Sparks to run separate programs, combine them into one! Or if your Cubbies program is thriving but you have onlya handful of Sparks enrolled, fold Sparkies into T&T.Whether youre interested in combining ages due to the number of children, your volunteer pool or the space available, Awana can work for your church.Large Group TimeThe What and Why books (on pages 34 and 47) provide lessonsideal for combined ages. Choose worship songs that are appropriate for all age groups or use this time to hand out awards to all age levels.Small Group TimeForm groups based on age and handbook level, or combine ages to share prayer requests. Listen to children recite their verses individually; you can ask important questions personalized to their level of understanding regardless of what book the student is in. Other kidscan strengthen their memorization while you listen, but involve the older kids as Awana leaders-in-training and recruit them to be listeners, as well!Activity TimeGroup kids around the Game Square based on ability or height. Or skip the square altogether and try smaller activities, table games or crafts. Awana game books(on pg 86) suggest fun activities you can do in small spaces and different situations.102'
