• Runny nose with colored discharge (green or yellow) accompanied by a fever.
• Fever - a temperature greater than 100 degrees (without fever-reducing medication).
• Vomiting and/or diarrhea; symptom free for 24 hours.

• Sore Throat.
• Streptococcal pharyngitis (“strep throat”) until 24 hours after treatment has been initiated.
• Croup, excessive coughing, chest congestion or sneezing.
• Child hood diseases (chicken pox, mumps, etc.).
• Drainage or redness that could possibly be considered conjunctivitis (“pink eye”).
• Head lice or nits within the past 24 hours.
• Questionable skin rash (that is contagious). Localized rashes such as prickly heat, eczema and diaper rash
are not contagious.

CLUB HELPFUL HINTS
What are points? Points are earned by clubbers and can be used to buy
AWESOME stuff at the Awana store.
How do I earn my “Awana Points?” Points are earned by:
- Attending: club, Church, Sunday school.
- Bringing: Bible, handbook, dues, a friend
- Participating in: Games, & Theme nights
- Wearing: my uniform & sneakers. We look forward to spring and all it has to bring. We know that boots are a must right now in the snow and muddy days that are coming. We encourage you to send running shoes for your clubber so they are better able to play during game time.

- Passing: sections in my handbook and completing it.
Tips for Parents
- Make a fun tune or hand motions for the memory verses.
- Trace a verse in shaving cream.
- Say a verse in silly voices.
- Make flash cards, with verses on one side and Scripture references on the other. Lots of colorful markers and paper can make the task a breeze. Ask your child to draw a picture of what the verse means alongside the verse.
