BOZ the Bear, Our MOPPETS Curriculum This Year!

With only a few short weeks until our first meeting on September 6, the Steering Team is busy getting everything ready for a fun year!  We are especially excited about our MOPPETS curriculum this year, BOZ the Bear.  While you enjoy "adult time" and a nice breakfast, your children will be having a blast learning with BOZ!  The lessons value faith, family, education, and positive social behaviors.  The curriculum was developed with MOPPETS in mind and written by Dr. Mary Manz Simon.  Dr. Simon holds a Ph. D in Education and is a MOPS International advisor. 

Here's a little more about BOZ:

BOZ is a whimsical green bear who loves exploring God’s world. A trusted friend, BOZ is loved by the Baxter kids, Drew and Gracie, along with their parents and grandparents, and everyone else in the neighborhood. 

His tree house in the Baxters' backyard is a common starting point for new adventures…and what adventures there are! From running and jumping and dancing, to reading and singing and playing make-believe, there’s always something fun to do with his friends! 

With a spirit filled with joy and a stomach filled with fruit, BOZ knows every day is a gift from God!

Instagram vs. Reality

The ladies at Scottsdale Bible Church MOPS in Arizona created this funny video to illustrate how different reality is from what you see other moms posting online! If you feel like your life is a mess, you're not alone! Come to MOPS this year and join us as we embrace our stories, messy or not, and build authentic friendships!
