Christian Education Program

Children ranging from infancy through the 6th grade are invited to join our Kids’ Klub Christian Education programming. Kids’ Klub staff are carefully selected individuals who are enthusiastic about the spiritual development and safety of your children.

Childcare is provided during the chapel services, quest series, and evening concerts.

  • NURSERY

    For children under 2 years of age

    Your little one will be well looked after with the love and care they need from our attentive, well-trained staff. Our Nursery Building has a playroom, a quiet room, and a screened porch.

  • PRESCHOOL

    For children ages 2 - 5

    Preschool is when Kids’ Klub programming really begins. Your child will return from the class having learned carefully chosen songs designed to hide God’s Word in their heart. Bible lessons and crafts are also taught at an age-appropriate level preparing them for the future. Each age has its classroom in the Preschool Building.

  • ELEMENTARY

    For Kindergartners- 4th Graders

    During these developmental years, kids dive deeper into the Bible. An emphasis is placed on Scripture memorization, and children are taught impactful lessons by qualified Kids’ Klub teachers, many of whom are Education majors. Each grade has its classroom in the Jelinek Center.

  • KLUB 56

    For 5th - 6th Graders

    Klub 56 programming bridges the gap and prepares children for the COTW Teens Program. Students will meet in the Sonju Sports Complex classroom for Bible lessons and worship and gather for various activities throughout the week.

Kid-Focused Activities

  • Parade & Carnival

    Participate in our long-standing tradition! Children and families dress up and parade through the property before the carnival starts. The carnival is a popular event with games, inflatables, music, and candy.

  • Beach & Water Carnival

    Nothing says summer fun quite like the Beach & Water Carnival! Your children can win gift certificates to the TeePee by winning water games or building the ultimate sand castle.

  • Praise & Puppets

    Children and parents alike love Praise & Puppets! Gather outdoors (weather permitting) for a time of kid-friendly worship mixed with fun puppet shows led by our Kids’ Klub staff.

  • Sports Emphasis

    Each week of the summer holds a sports emphasis where children are invited to learn the fundamentals of a sport. Instructors carefully incorporate spiritual life lessons into the content to make the time together special.

 Meet the Kids’ Klub Director

Kim Russell has been coming to CAMP-of-the-WOODS since she was 1 month old and has been involved with Kids’ Klub for 6 years. Her husband, Gary, is on full-time staff, and their daughters, Carina and Sierra, have been through the Kids’ Klub program.

Kim remembers being a part of the children’s program here (then called CE). “It was there that I gave my life to Jesus at 6 years old. I remember the teacher put a verse on a chalkboard and we played erase-a-word. It was Matthew 6:33 ‘But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.’ I have been seeking Him ever since. This is why I believe in the importance of Kids' Klub.”

During the non-summer months, Kim is an elementary and special needs teacher in New York City, in addition to planning and preparing for Kids’ Klub.

Do you have a child with special needs?

It’s very important to us that every child who participates in Kids’ Klub is well taken care of. If you have a child with special needs, please email Kim Russell to discuss what we can do to support your child. Careful consideration will be taken to place them in the appropriate grade-level class and give them individual or small group attention.
