Spiritually Parenting Your Preschooler

Rating:
Summary: Excellent resource
Review: I am a mother of three children 6, 4 and 3. I was so excited to find a book focusing on young children. This book is packed full of creative ideas, insights and fun stories. The author opens up her life and the life of her family to give real solutions and examples. She covers a wide range of topics such as sibling rivalry, self esteem, discipline, schooling, prayer and praise journals. I have implemented many ideas already. I meet with preschoolers and their moms once a week to focus on prayer and worship. We are learniong to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind and strength and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Hope Flinchbaugh gave me some great insight to teaching this truth and getting it deep into our hearts. We are encouarging the children to be yeiled to the Holy Spirit. It is exciting being part of what God is doing in these children. My greatest desire is to see my children grow in Jesus and be complete in Him. This book is a must read for anyone who has the privilege in sowing into the lives of young children.....or for those planning to have children. A great resource. Thanks, Hope!

Summary: Don't wait until they're all grown up!
Review: What an incredible resource this book has proven to be! As a professor of Christian education at a Christian University in Orlando, I not only found this material extremely beneficial for future pre-school teachers but also for parents and grandparents. This book is loaded with helpful suggestions that will stir up those creative juices to take your teaching and parenting over the top. If you are looking for a book that will help you select the right school for your children, instruct you about how to teach character and godly living, realize the value of spontaneous praise and worship and learn how to survive as a single parent, this will bring you some incredible answers. I particularly liked the flow of the book as well as the genuine compassion when dealing with rather delicate issues like teaching about prayer and building Christ esteem. The author's sense of humor and realness makes this book a keeper!
