What is a MOPS group?
MOPS groups are communities that strive to meet the needs of every mom with children from birth through kindergarten. MOPS recognizes that urban, suburban, and rural moms, stay-at-home and working moms, teen, single and married moms all share a similar desire to be the very best moms they can be. MOPS groups can help!
MOPS helps moms through relationships established in the context of local groups that provide a caring atmosphere for today's mother of young children. MOPS also encourages and supports moms through resources such as books, MOPS.org website, the daily MOMSense Radio program, and the MOPS♥to♥Mom Connection. What happens during a MOPS meeting?
Discussion: The intimate and accepting atmosphere of a small group offers moms a chance to share their successes, failures, questions, and concerns. It is during these times that a mom realizes that she is not alone, and lifelong friendships are formed.
Teaching: Topics presented at MOPS meetings celebrate motherhood and meet a mom's unique needs during this season of life.
Creative Activities: Through creative projects and presentations, women are encouraged to expreience the sense of accomplishment that comes with trying and finishing new things.
MOPPETS: During MOPS meetings, children are cared for in a program called MOPPETS, where they experience love in a pre-school like setting. |
