“Behold; Children are a heritage from
our Lord.” (Psalm 127:3)
The Preschool Ministry of First Baptist Church is called "Discovery Zone". We strive to provide the safe, secure, and nurturing environment that is essential for spiritual growth. We believe that all children
should be provided a chance to discover that God made them, God loves them, and Jesus wants to be their friend forever.
Discovery Zone strives to set strong foundations
in the lives of our preschoolers. These foundations are instilled through
loving, caring adults that understand the importance of the preschool
years. It is our desire that every parent feels comfortable with
the care and attention their child receives while at FBC-Harlingen.
Our infants and preschoolers deserve the best.
Each program activity includes opportunities for preschoolers to learn
more about God’s Word through Bible stories, music, hands-on
activities, crafts, and more!
Our hope is that your child will find church a fun place to be and that,
one day, he or she will come to have a personal relationship with Jesus
Christ.
The nursery is an exciting place to be on Sunday mornings. During Bible Study, our precious little ones are
taught about Jesus, using the "First Look " curriculum. First Look focuses on Bible stories, Biblical principles, and activities that help preschoolers understand what God is like. Bible study in the nursery is fun, creative, expressive, and especially designed with preschoolers in mind.
Care is provided for children birth thru Pre-K (5 years old) during the
morning worship services.

 MOPS

MOPS is about…
- Celebrating motherhood
- Meeting needs
- Making connections

and resource

 Mother's
Day Out is available to all children 2 months to 4 years of age.
Children in MDO are provided Developmental Playtime in a spiritual
learning environment. This is done in a loving Christian atmosphere
where children’s feelings of self-worth and regard for others are
placed above achievement. The emphasis of MDO is on learning through
play and on the love that Jesus Christ has for all little children.
The objectives of the program for preschoolers are to enable each child
to:
- Grow in awareness that God loves them and
that Jesus is a special friend.
- Grow in understanding and love for themselves,
their families, and others in the world.
- Grow in the ability to think, solve problems,
and develop language skills.
- Enjoy creative expression in music, art,
and play.
We use a variety of Bible-based curriculum that is planned for the growth
and development of preschoolers. Activities that embrace spiritual,
mental, physical, social and emotional development are included under
each theme. The themes are designed to help lay a foundation for
understanding God, Jesus, the Bible, the Church, self, others, and the
natural world.
