“Cool Down” is a time after the children leave where we ask the volunteers for comments, suggestions, prayer requests, and give them details for the next day. This normally takes about 20 minutes after the parents pick up their children.
Question:
Are the groups of children broken up by age?

No, we prefer to have the older and younger children together and siblings are kept together at all times.
