In this episode, I invite my friend Jared Kennedy to join me to talk about his latest Toddler & Preschool curriculum with New Growth Press.

We explore the significance of play in learning, creating a safe and engaging environment for children, and the role of memory in early childhood education. Jared emphasizes the need for encouraging volunteers, casting vision for toddler and preschool ministry, and the importance of parent discipleship.

In today's conversation, I invited my friend, Kris Buckman to help all of us think about safety in a whole new way. We discuss the importance of safety protocols in church environments, particularly focusing on child protection and compliance.
