In many circles, “puggle” is
a common term for a baby platypus. In children's
ministry circles, Awana Puggles is an
enriching program for your pre-Cubbies
kids (usually older 2- and younger 3-year-olds)
that presents basic biblical concepts:
- We are a unique
creation of God.
- God loves us
very much.
Awana Puggles teaches
toddlers simple lessons through teaching cards,
activities, music and more. Awana Puggles
leaders have a leader’s guidebook to help them
plan and direct club time and communicate the
lesson.

The Awana club for
preschoolers is built on two premises:
- Young
children can and should receive spiritual
training.
- Home is the primary place for spiritual training.
Awana is fun
with a purpose – to reach and train kids for
Jesus Christ. Games, puppets, crafts, awards and
other activities transform our preschool program
into a lively weekly experience where fun and
learning go hand in hand.

The Awana club for
children in kindergarten through second grade
builds on the material taught in our preschool
clubs. The curriculum takes kids a step deeper
into God's Word while giving unsaved boys and
girls regular opportunities to hear the gospel
and come to faith in Jesus Christ. After being
immersed in solid foundational teaching at the
preschool level, boys and girls frequently come
to an understanding of their need to trust
Christ as their personal Savior while in Sparks.
The Sparks program is firmly grounded in
Scripture. The three handbooks feature:
- Basic truths about God,
Jesus Christ, salvation and the Bible
- A clear and consistent
presentation of the gospel message
- An increased emphasis on
Scripture memory over our preschool
materials. In three years, a child will
learn and review over 65 verses, many of
which cover salvation and key Christian
doctrine.
- A chronological walk
through Scripture
- Details about Bible
characters told in captivating biographies
- A handbook CD with
dramatic biography readings, memory verses
and more
Sparks club meetings combine
learning with fun to create an atmosphere of
irresistible excitement for churched and
unchurched kids alike. Club meetings are divided
into three segments:
- Bible teaching, worship,
award presentations and the gospel message
- Small group interaction
and completion of Bible-based lessons
- Age-appropriate
games on the Awana game circle
Along the
way, Sparky, the friendly firefly, and his three
friends have many exciting adventures. Sparky
encourages kids to learn verses and complete
assignments throughout the three handbooks.

The name Truth & Training
reflects the passion of Awana to teach third-
through sixth-grade boys and girls the truth of
God’s Word and to train them to follow Christ in
their daily lives. Our goal is that many of
today’s young people will become tomorrow’s
church leaders. T&T is the program that trains
the leaders of tomorrow — today.
T&T is equipped with a
variety of dynamic tools to accomplish this
mission:
- Four handbooks of
increasing difficulty which teach children
that life’s ultimate adventure is a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ
- A cast of fun characters
that boys and girls learn from and follow on
interesting journeys in the handbooks
- Weekly meetings that
expose children to the gospel message,
Scripture memory, Bible study, awards,
team-oriented games and gut-busting fun
- A Bible-centered
curriculum that helps kids build a firm
foundation for their faith, hide God’s Word
in their heart and apply the truths of
Scripture to their daily lives
- Interactive CDs that use
exciting high-tech games to teach and
reinforce key biblical truths
Evangelism and discipleship
go hand in hand in our third- through
sixth-grade program. By the time a child has
completed T&T, he will have:
- Learned and
reviewed approximately 310 verses
- Studied dozens of
passages from the Old and New Testament
- Regularly heard and read
the gospel message
- Discovered the Bible’s
response to questions like “How does God
want me to live my life?” and memorized
verses to back up these answers
- Completed missions
projects that help him see the world through
God’s eyes.
