Children have an innate sense of the presence of God. The Godly Play approach helps them to explore their faith through story, to gain religious language and to enhance their spiritual experience though wonder and play. Based on Montessori principles and developed using a spiral curriculum, the Godly Play method serves children through early, middle and late childhood and beyond. Come join us!

The two of our Haven teachers who do Godly Play with our 3-5 year olds have been through the three-day core training.  They meet with the children once a week and introduce a Bible Story, and then allow the children to do creative exploratory play to further their understanding of these stories.
