Children's Day Out
First United Methodist Church Children's Day Out Program is licensed by the Arkansas Department of Human Services and is considered an important ministry in our church.
Philosophy
The purpose of our Children's Day Out Program is to provide children with the opportunity to experience loving, happy, spiritual relationships with adults and children outside their own homes. Children begin to develop valuable skills through group play by gaining trust in new adults, expanding their language, social, physical, and developmental skills

has a very light structure and works to ready children for preschool.
Emphasis is placed on developing good manners, learning to share, sitting

weather, and the changing seasons are all introduced. The Discovery Class
is available three days a week and provides your children with many experiences
