The Clubhouse Chronicles 2024 edition! // Clubhouse Banana — Story 1: Sick Mama!

 Here we go again!

It's second grade and we learn about friendship and team work based on some stories about Jesus and his friends. This year we are playing at two schools but —due to circumstances— one of the schools has some delay, so we start with school #1.

School 1: Clubhouse Banana

There are two friends here: Arin and Alfie who come together in a clubhouse based in the basement of the supermarket where Arin's mom is the store manager. It's real cosy with lots of little lights, but more often than not all the boxes with food from the supermarket are in the way and smell a little off.

Arin is a girl who likes to dress up. She's really good at it, but she's got a problem, she cannot stop giggling! Alfie is a guy who likes to build stuff, but is incredably shy. He always wears a home made helmet on his head and claims to be an alien. It's clearly a box covered with aluminium foil and some bottlecaps for knobs. He's adamant that he's an alien though. They are both 7 years old.

Adventure 1: Sick Mama

Arin's mother calls her to tell her she's sick and they need to head home. The clubhouse is gonna have to be closed until she's better enough to come back into work. She's taking Alfie home as well until his mom can come pick them up. Arrived their they decide to help mom by doing the dishes while she's sleeping it off and making some instant soup with some toast. It all works out great and they get great praise from doctor Lisa who arrives to look mom over. If she's being taken care off like this for the next couple days, she'll be better in no time, and the clubhouse can open again!

The kids learned a new talent! Cooking!

We also listen to a story about how Jesus helps his friend Peter when his mother in law is sick and think about how friends help each other out! Friendship is beautiful!

After the last adventure I asked my student if her character Arin had anyone special she looked up to, maybe a singer or an actor or someo...
