The age group they teach (2s and 3s) are just learning how to "do Sunday School" and two months of a new teacher each week may be a little tough on them. At that age, children can take a while to become accustomed to a new surrounding and constant change is very stressful. A different suggestion would be for a lady in our group or a husband/wife couple to fill in for the two months. We've done that in the past and it has worked well. This would be a time commitment, but definitely an act of service to Jay and Suzanne and less confusing to the children.
