To the parents of our young children, may we suggest...
Relax! God put the wiggle in children; don't feel you have to suppress it in God's house. All are welcome!
Sit toward the front where it is easier for your little one to see and hear what's going on. They tire of seeing the back of others' heads.
Quietly explain the parts of the service and actions of the pastor, ushers, and music ministers, etc.
Sing the hymns, pray and use the Bible in the pew (or your own). Children learn church behavior by copying you.
If you have to leave the service with your child, feel free to do so, but please come back. As Jesus said, "Let the little children come to Me."
