Vineyard Kids

Vineyard Kids provides engaging, faith-building experiences that teach God’s Word in age-appropriate ways. We use curriculum and resources from Wonder Ink. It is our goal to partner with families to lead children into a growing relationship with Jesus.

Vineyard Kids offers in-person classes for infants through 5th grade on Sundays at 9:30am and 11:30am.

Birthday Vault

Children ages 1 to 12 are invited to visit the VK Birthday Vault to receive their Top Secret Mission and a small wrapped gift. Their gift and “mission” are both based on their age.

Your child should receive a post card from VK in the mail inviting your child to visit the Birthday Vault in the month of their birthday. Didn't receive a post card? That's okay! Your child is still welcome to visit the Birthday Vault anytime in the month of their birthday.

The Birthday Vault is located in the lower level of the building in Kids Area 1.2, near the Nursery and the outdoor playground entrance. Check out the video tour below.

You're invited to join the Vineyard Kids (VK) family! Serving in VK is a great way to feel more connected and get to know other families. Whether you’d like to provide security, check kids in, or hold babies, we'll help you find the role that is right for you. Fill out the application today!

Nursery (6 weeks - 3 year olds not potty-trained)

Your child is LOVED! Babies and toddlers receive the best of care in a safe, welcoming environment. Nursery children enjoy playtime and are prayed for by our volunteers.Toddlers participate in play activities, worship, and a Bible lesson.

When your child turns three years of age and is potty-trained, he or she will be promoted to our Early Childhood ministry.

Early Childhood (3, 4 & 5 years, including Kindergarten)

Your child is BLESSED by God! Children begin in a small group setting with hands-on activities and play, then join together in a larger group for fun, high-energy worship, prayer and a Bible lesson.

Using Tru Curriculum, Early Childhood kids begin to practice hearing and responding to God’s Word in worship response. Early Childhood students also receive a blessing prayer from our volunteers.

Elementary (1st - 5th Grade)

Your child is part of God’s Big Story! 1st through 5th grade students begin service with fun, high-energy worship, prayer, and the Big God Story (our Bible lesson).

Students spend time in small groups, and are given time to be in God’s presence, listen to His voice, and respond in worship. A blessing is spoken over each student so they may grow in their understanding of how they are also part of God’s Big Story for His people.

Childcare

Childcare is separate from our Vineyard Kids ministry, which is free of charge during our weekend services.

Childcare is offered during some classes and events on weekdays, evenings and weekends for young children from infants to 5th grade. See your group or class leader to confirm whether or not childcare is offered for your class or event.

Cost:
One child $5
Two or more children $10

Reservations & Guidelines:
To make a reservation for childcare, you can register for childcare at the time you register for the event online. If the event doesn't require registration, go to the event page anyway and click on the Register for Childcare button.

Parents must remain on site, and pick up children promptly at the end of the event. Children will only be released to adults with tags that have a matching number to the child's tag.
