MissionExposure will offer special children's programs at no cost to you throughout the weekend conference. The Pre-School Program is designed for children ages 3-5* and the Children's Program is for K-6th grade. Both will be available during all general sessions and seminars. All volunteers working with children have had previous experience working in the area of children's ministry in their church.
The Thailand Team from Pomona First Baptist Church will do a two hour children's program demonstrating the life and work of a short term missionary, particularly to Thailand. The team will use hands-on activities to show the children how the team arrived in Thailand, where they lived, and how they worked to build a water system. They will show the children basic tools and techniques that are used to complete a project such as this one. After the program, the children will have an understanding of Thai culture, know a Karen song, and have a better understanding of what short term missionaries do and how they can pray for them. It is sure to be an exciting lesson for children of all ages! Saturday April 26 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM, RM 103
Rev. Barney Kinard, a Children’s Evangelist with Creative Children’s Ministries, will be our special guest leader for the Elementary children. This session will feature the lively-music ministry of Livia Ko, who has trained children's musical teams that have gone to Mexico and Panama. Barney will be leading the children to understand just how they can part of the Great Kid Mission. Can children obey the Great Commission? Barney thinks so. Further, he will creatively present a visualized message that will include his famous ventriloquism friend Barnacle Nard. Saturday, April 26 2:30 PM- 4:00 PM, RM 103 :
Christine Wong, of Action Missions will provide interactive Bible stories, singing, gospel magic tricks and make special balloon animals for all kids in attendance on Saturday evening.   Christine has provided training for teachers and kids’ workers and is an outstanding clown for Christ.

Registration
Parents MUST come to register their children at the registration table during the specified Registration times. Parents MUST pick up their children promptly at the end of the session. To ensure safety, children will only be released to their parent.
Pre-School Program
The pre-school program is designed for potty-trained children ages 3-5. During this time, the children will go through their ABC's as they learn first about a country beginning with the letter "A", then "B", and so on. Brightly colored visual aids and reinforcement activities will be used to make this a fun time of learning. The pre-school children will also join with the older children for worship time. This program runs simultaneously with the Children's program.
Children's Program
Children will hear energetic children's speakers and missionaries who will creatively teach them about different people groups and cultures. Children will also learn how to pray for the many unreached children around the world. There will be a wide variety of activities to reinforce what the children learn throughout the weekend.
