Early Explorers (0-4 years old)
Meeting in our newly refurbished Nursery, our youngest participants come together in a spirit of exploration and play. We emphasize developmentally appropriate play, using toys and activities meant to gently encourage infants and toddlers to explore and grow. The Early Explorers are supervised by a trained adult staff member and supported by teen and/or adult volunteers.
Chalice Keepers (5-8 years old)
Our early elementary learners meet in the Mural Room with their teacher and one adult helper. Their curriculum comes primarily through the Unitarian Universalist Association’s (UUA) Tapestry of Faith series. For the Chalice Keepers, the curriculum focuses on developing community through an introduction to UU Principles and an exploration of concepts like love, family, fairness, and so on. This year, the cohort is using the curriculum Wonderful Welcome which helps them investigate different intangible concepts through our “Wonder Box.” Each class features some combination of story, play, and activity that helps to bring the concept to life.

UU Seekers (9-12 years old)
Older elementary learners meet in our Fishtank Room each week to expand their understanding and awareness of spirituality, ethics, and action. They begin a deeper focus of their own identity and develop tools and questions that help them
become lifelong spiritual learners and engaged, ethical citizens. This year, the cohort is using the Tapestry of Faith curriculum “Windows and Mirrors” which aims to focus attention on the relationships between ourselves and others, individually and collectively. As a key part of their learning, the UU Seekers take on several community and social justice projects.

Junior Youth (13-14 years old)
For the 2020/2021 programming year our junior youth (kids currently in grades 7-8) are meeting virtually on Sundays at 11am for "Popcorn Theology." This program uses movie excerpts to support specific themes and add a social justice focus to address the painful issues of our times. More information is available here. It's a lot of fun and helps kids think deeply about the world around them while connecting virtually with their UUCGL peers. If you have questions or would like to join, please contact Mary Gatlin.
