CHILDREN

 

 PUF is a family oriented event.

We welcome your children here.  We want them to have a good time and we want them to be safe at all times. 

We hope that this event will be something they remember fondly and look forward to attending each year. 

With that in mind, we have put certain standards in place: 

    1. We require that a parent or guardian accompany children under the age of three at all times. 
    2. Children between the ages of 3 and 7 may participate in activities in our Kids’ Area.  In this area, we have separate stations set up for coloring, clay, finger painting and arts and crafts.  The children are encouraged to find the activities that interest them.  Adults guide the younger ones.  All these activities are geared for children within this age group.  We also have play periods outside.  We do not change diapers; so all children must be potty trained.
    3. Children 7 through 11 have actual workshops that will interest them.  These include, making candles, kites, musical instruments, and masks.  We also have hikes and other outdoor activities.  The workshops for the children last 1.5 hours each and run at the same time as the adult workshops.  There is a workshop for each time period. 
    4. We will have outside water activities for your children, send swim wear, towels and a change of clothes.
    5. You must sign your child into and out of our care.  There will be paperwork to fill out pertaining to your child’s needs. 
    6. Do not simply send your child to the activities building.  The Security Thugs will hunt you down.
    7. You will be asked who else can collect your child from our care when you fill out the paperwork. . Do not send anyone whose name is not on the list to collect your child as they will not be released.
    8. The Children's Activities coordinator is a member of our volunteer staff.  Please instruct your child to be polite and cooperative.
    9. Children’s activities run on the adult class schedule.  There is a break for lunch; please collect your child at that time. 
    10. Please collect your child promptly at the end of the day.
    11. Failure to collect your child at the appointed times may result in loss of Children's Activities privileges.
    12. You must volunteer 1.5 hours in the Children’s Activities area for each child that you bring. 
    13. You must sign up for volunteer time when you bring your child and sign him/her into care.
    14. Explain to your child that they MUST remain in care until you come for them.
    15. We do not administer medicine; please give you child his/her medication before you bring them to care.  If your child needs a dose of medicine while in our care, please come and administer it to your child at the proper time.
    16. Please bring a large T-shirt for your child to wear for messy activities.
    17. If your child is young, please bring a pillow and blanket so they may nap if they wish.
    18. All children under the age of 12 must be in care or in the company of a parent or guardian.  If any children are found wandering, they will be sold to the highest bidder.
    19. Children over the age of 12 may attend classes with a parent.  They are expected to behave as adults.
    20. If you send your child to Children's Activities with a walkie-talkie, please know that the item will be turned off and placed in a closet, only to be used if your child has an emergency.
    21. Failure to adhere to these guidelines will result in your child not being allowed to participate in children’s activities.

  2. There will be a DVD player so they can watch movies.
  3. We will provide some movies and teens are encouraged to bring their own.
  4. Any movies or music needs to be labeled, so it can be returned to the owner.

  6. We reserve the right to refuse any music, DVDs or games that we deem inappropiate.
  7. There will be two formal classes a day for them.

  9. Teens may also attend any of the workshops.
  10. Teens are welcome at the upper bonfire.
