Okay, parents, it’s that time again: summer vacation. Now, my 4 children haven’t started school yet, but I can imagine the mixed feelings that can come with summer vacation… The joy of having more time with the children… or maybe the fright of having more time with your children. What do we do with all this time on our hands? How many days will go by before my child complains about being bored? What fun activities can we do this summer?
Well, look no further! I’ve done some research on some local Vacation Bible School (VBS) programs in Corpus Christi, and you’re sure to find one (or two or three!) that fit your schedule. I’ve listed them in order by dates below, and given a few details about each one to help you determine which VBS works for you and your family. And don’t worry, we won’t judge you if you take your kids to multiple VBS programs! You gotta get the groceries and clean the house sometime, right?!
Bonus: Most of the Vacation Bible School programs are completely FREE unless otherwise noted. A win for mom and a win for the kids!
