Helping kids with their homework is a huge part of the program at Cottage Cove. Everyday the kids have to work on and finish their homework before they can play games or do any of the other free time activities. Each time they finish a homework assignment correctly, they are rewarded by receiving homework stars. Every month we do a field trip of some sort, and the kids with the most homework stars that month are the ones that get to go on the field trip.
The field trip for March took place on Sunday. A group from a local church came in to Cottage Cove and put on an easter egg hunt for the kids. So for a few hours on Sunday night I got to hang out with some kids, eat hot dogs for dinner, and help them search for easter eggs that were hidden in plain sight. The group also helped the kids with a craft and did a short devotional. The kids all had a great time, and so did I. Its always a blast when we get to just hang out with the kids. Here are a few pictures from the evening.

Were expecting to be low on help this week due to all of our college students being on spring break, but I'm looking forward to it none the less. If you're free at all this week feel free to stop by and hang out with some awesome kids. :)
Wish I could help this week <3
