| KIDS Town Tour Get ready as we prepare to embark on an exciting journey to a place where both children and adults will experience God in a special way. The place is KIDS Town, where the emphasis is on ’kids.’ KIDS Town is our Children’s Ministry for kids from birth through 6th grade. So from this moment on, when you hear anything that relates to Children’s Ministry, it will be referred to as KIDS Town. KIDS Town features spacious classrooms to accommodate the activities of each age group from infants to sixth graders. We have new and dynamic worship programs. Add this up and you’ll find KIDS Town is... - A town of discovery for children to explore and experience God’s great love for them
- A wonderful place that can meet the needs of families in the community
- An exciting place that you’ll enjoy visiting and will want to invite your neighbors, friends, and coworkers with children to visit, also.
Before we begin our tour, we want you to know that KIDS Town is for kids and we want to insure your children’s safety. To assist the town officials, all adults who enter KIDS Town must wear proper credentials. For members, staff, volunteers, and regular attenders to Perimeter Church, you will be issued a Photo I.D. badge. This is your passport to enter KIDS Town (so please wear your badge, or you’ll be delayed going through KIDS Town Customs). Guests will be issued temporary passports to visit KIDS Town. To obtain an ID Badge, report to the KIDS Town Offices (Midtown) for a photo. Downtown KIDS Town is a tri-level town. We will begin our trip on the first floor of the KIDS Town Building, which from this point on will be referred to as Downtown. Downtown is home to two groups of children: Nursery (birth-24 months) and Pre-School (ages 3’s 4’s & pre-K) Noah’s Landing is our nursery for children ages birth - 2 years. We maintain very low adult to child ratios. Safety and care are our top priorities. You might say this is KIDS Town marina with only one boat...a GREAT BIG BOAT! Farmer’s Market is also located in Downtown. Farmers’ Market is designed for our three year olds to pre-k. We divide the classes by birthdates in four-month increments. Each class has weekly Bible lesson, music, stories and crafts. Downtown Points of Interest Features: - Soft, indoor playground
- Changing Station: full diaper-changing facility
- Filling Station: room for nursing mothers.
- Lullaby Room: resting place for sleeping babies.
- Two-way mirror: for parents to check on babies.
- Rooms fully furnished: with Diaper changing facilities and child-size bathrooms complete with split "Dutch" door allowing for privacy and monitored adult supervision.

In Downtown there is a lot of nurturing and planting of seeds going on here. Mid-Town
Now our tour takes us to the main level, which from now on will be referred to as Midtown. The hub of activity takes place on the highly traveled thoroughfare known as Main Street. Here you will experience the ’down home feel’ of Kids Town as you meander down the tree-lined avenue. Our K-3rd graders will occupy Central Park as they continue their exciting journey learning Bible stories and beginning the discipleship process that will follow them as they grow spiritually in KIDS Town. Midtown Points of Interest Features: - Classrooms: tailored for discipling.
- Midtown Auditorium: complete with lights, sound system, and stage for worship and teaching.
Uptown
Our final destination is the 3rd level, which is known as Uptown. You will find the 4th, 5th, and 6th graders here. Be careful, you might encounter a skate boarder or two. In order for our kids to become mature believers in Christ, they must understand the truths and promises of God. Kids are encouraged to make real commitments to God here in Uptown. We have a special place in Uptown for our 6th graders. They have their own ’hang-out’ known as 6th Street Café. Here they can mingle with their friends before, between, and after Sunday services. We plan some really cool activities throughout the year such as lock-ins, camp-outs, cookouts, and concerts for our 6th graders. Our 6th graders are awesome, and KIDS Town designed this place just for them. My regrets to the younger classes, but this room is for 6th graders ONLY. You’ll have your opportunity soon enough. Uptown Points of Interest Features: Uptown Auditorium: complete with lights, sound system, and stage for worship and teaching - Classrooms: tailored for discipling with smaller child-to- classroom ratios
- 6th Street Hallway: reserved for 6th graders’ actitivites only
- 6th Street Café: a "cool" recreation and fellowship hang-out
- New and dynamic youth-type activities: specifically designed for 6th graders
KIDS Town Theatre KIDS Town has an unique offering for our 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th graders. At our 9:00 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. service, we offer "KidsQuest". This is an "awesome" kids church where all the children sing and worship together in a large group. They sit together by grade in our KIDS Town Theatre. In KidsQuest, they travel through the Bible. Stories come to life through drama, puppetry, music and games. We hope you enjoyed your tour of KIDS Town. On behalf of Mayor Ike, Mayor of KIDS Town, I want to welcome you to our humble town. Mere words do not do justice in describing this wonderful town. You’ve got to come for a visit; you’ll never want to leave! God has blessed us in a mighty way with KIDS Town. Come see all blessings KIDS Town has to offer! |
