Awana Club Groups

PUGGLES

In many circles, “puggle” is a common term for a baby platypus. In Awana circles, Puggles is an enriching program for pre-Cubbies kids (2yr olds) that presents basic biblical concepts:
  • We are a unique creation of God.

  • God loves us very much.
Puggles learn simple lessons through teaching cards, activities, music and more. Puggle parents can step in to reinforce the lessons with take-home cards that include ideas to point out God’s work each day. And little details like Puggles T-shirts, puzzles and coloring books make every precious child feel like part of the group!

CUBBIES

The Cubbies curriculum features two handbooks written in a fun, storybook style that appeals to preschoolers. The handbooks contain 24 Bear Hug sections along with six optional special-day sections. Each section combines basic Scripture memory with parent-child activities to help a child grasp a simple biblical truth. Two extra-credit handbooks containing additional memory verses and character-building activities are also available. A night in Cubbies includes games, a snack, a flannelgraph story, puppets, and more!
SPARKIES

Sparks curriculum is comprised of three handbooks . Each handbook communicates spiritual truths through memory verse drills, crafts, activities and review of key doctrine, Bible facts and verses. Book one features a flight theme and the second and third books follow a nature motif, starting with HangGlider, then Hiker, and ending with Climber.
Before working in a handbook, newcomers to Sparks complete an entrance booklet called Flight 316 that introduces them to the program and teaches them about salvation in Jesus. A night at Sparks Club includes games, story time, and handbook time. Sparkies also can look forward to several special events during their club year including the Sparky Hike, the Sparks-a-Rama olympic games, and the Awana Store!


TRUTH & TRAINING (T&T)

The name Truth & Training reflects the passion of Awana to teach third- through sixth-grade boys and girls the truth of God’s Word and to train them to follow Christ in their daily lives. Our goal is that many of today’s young people will become tomorrow’s church leaders. T&T is the program that trains the leaders of tomorrow — today.
Exciting features to get kids excited about God’s Word. T&T is equipped with a variety of dynamic tools to accomplish this mission:
  • Four handbooks of increasing difficulty which teach children that life’s ultimate adventure is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ
  • A cast of fun characters that boys and girls learn from and follow on interesting journeys in the handbooks
  • Weekly meetings that expose children to the gospel message, Scripture memory, Bible study, awards, team-oriented games and gut-busting fun
  • A Bible-centered curriculum that helps kids build a firm foundation for their faith, hide God’s Word in their heart and apply the truths of Scripture to their daily lives
  • Interactive CDs that use exciting games to teach and reinforce key biblical truths
Evangelism and discipleship go hand in hand in our third- through sixth-grade program. By the time a child has completed T&T, he will have:
  • Learned and reviewed approximately 310 verses
  • Studied dozens of passages from the Old and New Testament
  • Regularly heard and read the gospel message
  • Discovered the Bible’s response to questions like “How does God want me to live my life?” and memorized verses to back up these answers
  • Completed missions projects that help him see the world through God’s eyes.
