INTERACTING WITH CHILDREN
KiCK Martial Arts is involving children in big idea topics with a chalkboard wall!
The kids love to write stuff before and after classes and we love seeing what they respond with!
SO FUN!
We've seen tons of answers to this question:
HOW WOULD YOU CHANGE THE WORLD?
"Loving each other more"
"Be Kind"
"Kid president"
"Help people who have cancer"
"Spread KiCK around the world"
"Help all others"
Children have great minds that are BIG. They have the capacity to change the world and love being involved. Finding little ways to let children explain their point of view makes them feel important. That's huge. We want all children to feel comfortable enough to talk to us, right? But maybe, adults have to spark the conversation first. It can happen through our...
DAILY BEAD CEREMONY
At the end of our classes parents have the opportunity to honor their child in front of the whole class. A bead may be a small thing, but the bead is not the importance. They get your heart, mind, and honor - a life changing feeling for a child.
BEAD COLORS:
Orange- displaying self- control (controlling my actions)
Blue- displaying compassion (caring for others)
White- Having integrity (doing the right thing when no one is watching)
Grey- Showing humility (putting others first)
Black- Having perseverance (never giving up)
Parents and kids are having meaningful conversations in front of everyone. This isn't something you have to do in front of everyone though, it can even be at home!
You can drop off a message for us in our prayer jar. It's where you can tell us anything, good or bad. Explain how we can pray for you, or even how class was. We want to get to know our families and that sometimes means getting in the messy with you. We are okay with that! :)
