Loop Kids is available for kids from birth through 5th grade.
We meet during Near North's 10AM Worship Gathering.
Spots are limited and based on the number of Loop Kids Leaders we have each weekend.
Check-in opens at 9:30AM, but the hallways to the classrooms open at 9:50AM. And we are first come, first-serve, so once a classroom reaches capacity, we will have to close that classroom.
It is our desire to never have to turn any kid away, so we're always looking for more Leaders so we can continue to serve ALL kids at Park! If you're interested in serving, fill out this short form for next steps.
Check out the FAQ's below to see the most important things you'll want to know!
We are excited to worship with you soon!
Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be programming for kids of all ages?
We offer Loop Kids for kids from birth - 5th grade. Please know that we may not always be able to provide programming for all classrooms each and every, as we are limited by the number of leaders we have each weekend. As our Loop Kids team grows, we'll consistently be able to add more classrooms and serve more kids. Thanks for understanding!
What is your Wellness Policy now due to Covid-19?
We want our kids and leaders to come (and leave) Loop Kids healthy! All families and leaders attending Loop Kids should conduct a self health-check before coming to church for the following symptoms:
- Fever higher than 100.3
- A new or worsening cough
- Loss of taste or sense of smell.
- Chills or body ache
- Fatigue
- Nausea or vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Exposure to anyone who has tested positive for Covid-19 within the past 10 days.
If anyone in their household has exhibited any of these symptoms in the last 72 hours, we would kindly ask them to engage with worship online that Sunday.
Will my child need to wear a mask while at Loop Kids?
As of March 2022, masks will be optional for all individuals at Near North with the exception of Loop Kids Leaders who serve kids ages 5 and under. Of course, if you'd prefer your child to wear a mask while at Loop Kids, they are more than welcome to.
Will there be snack time during Loop Kids?
We provide snacks for kids in Kindergarten and younger. We typically serve graham crackers, veggie straws, or goldfish crackers. Please let us know if your child has any food allergies.
What does a typical class look like?
We use the Gospel Project Curriculum during the school year (click here to learn more about what we are learning). A typical Sunday morning includes a time of worship, teaching, and then craft or games that go along with the lesson. The younger classrooms have snack time, and our 1st-5th graders begin and end in small groups.
Is there free parking?
You bet! We have free parking in the garage and in our outside lot. The entrances to both are on Crosby Street. If those lots are full, you can find parking in the neighborhood.
I'd like to get involved! How do I do that?
We love getting this question! We're always looking to add parents and individuals who love Jesus and love the next generation. If you'd like more information about joining our Loop Kids team, fill out this short form here. We'll be in touch!
