Some Tips That Will Help!
Moms and Dads are essential helpers in the enjoyment of AWANA. Please consider the following tips in order to allow your child to get the most from his/her Club:
-
Help your child to attend AWANA every week. This consistency will help build friendships and achievements.
-
Make sure they wear their uniform and that they bring their dues each week.
-
Be sure they arrive on time: 6:20 PM. Promptness helps maintain good discipline.
-
Help your child 2-3 sections weekly. This will ensure that they finish their book and receive their book award.
-
Attend all major events. Parents are always welcome to attend any club meeting.
-
Pick up your child promptly at 8:15 PM.

Always encourage your child. Children have more fun when Mom and Dad show interest in their accomplishments.
