Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS)
Welcome to MOPS at VPC!
Registration for 2010-2011
is underway!
Have you ever wondered why colleges don’t offer a degree in Parenting? Raising healthy, resilient kids is no easy task! Mothering is both art and science, requiring both sides of our brain and sometimes more than two hands! There’s the scientific side to mothering, where we look at how our children react under different circumstances and use that to shape our future plans. But there is no secret formula for success, as mothering also requires a great deal of artistry. Each child and mother is unique, and our individual personalities, gifts, and experiences make our journey through motherhood colorful. God’s hand is always there to guide us, even as we lead our children and ourselves through the hard spots. During the 2010-11 MOPS year, we will have fun together as we explore Momology: The Art and Science of Mothering.
