WELCOME TO THE MT. SYLVAN KINDER GARDEN
The 2020 Summer Program will begin on June 10 with a Virtual Kinder Garden. We will continue with individual visits to the garden to pick the 'vegetable of the week'. In addition, there will be a video "Storytime in the Garden" by Ms. Kathy posted on our website each Wednesday morning, as well as 'Digging Deeper Devotions' and other weekly lessons. We will keep you posted as to when we can safely and comfortably gather as a group under the big tree once again. If you have any questions or concerns please email them to kbpowell07@gmail.com.

I BELIEVE IN CHILDREN
....There is faith in their eyes,
Love in their touch
And hope in their attitude.
....I thrill with them at life's joy's
Run with them through tall grasses
And bow with them in worship.
....They are the fragile dream of yesterday,
Life's radiant reality of today
And the vibrant vision of tomorrow.

Our Mission Statement
We believe that it is never too early to introduce a child to God's amazing love through a hands-on experience of growing and tending a garden. A strong foundation of faith can be built upon this very early exposure to garden experiences as related to scripture and Biblical teachings of obedience, patience, hard work, dependence on God, tolerance of others, humility, kindness, generosity, prayer, and praise.
