Congrats Girls!
Both Violet and Dominique are enrolled in Awana's Clubs at a local church. Violet has been going since she was 4 and Dominique joined in the fall when she was 3.
Awana's is like a kid's Bible Study. They do stories, play some games, recite their (hopefully) memorized verses, and get rewards for doing so. They can attend starting at age 3 and go until High School (although ours only goes until Grade 4 because of lack of kids). They have books that they work on throughout the year and if they complete them, they gets badges or "jewels" to add to their vests.
Dominique has enjoyed attending Awana's this year (she's in the Cubbies program). Apparently she does really well, recites her verses that we memorized at home and does really well. She completed her entire book and was really excited about it.
Violet, on the other hand, had a bit of a tough year at Awana's (she's in the Sparkies program). The verses are longer (at one point she had to memorize all Psalm 23), and as she didn't complete her book from last year, she had to finish that book up first, before starting on her 2nd year book. She was determined to finish her 2nd book, which meant at some points memorizing up to 5 verses at a time, but she did it!
When they complete their books, they get an award at the Award's Ceremony at the year end. Dominique got her ribbon for her book, and Violet got 2 ribbons for completing her 1st and 2nd books.
So proud of you girls.
