At breakfast each morning, the children and I pray, read scripture, and occasionally review the Catechism for Young Children. I really enjoy this time...there is something wonderful about watching them grow in His Word.
You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. Deut. 6:7

How sweet! What a lovely little girl. My littlest lady (2) was telling me that Jesus was in the kitchen the other day, when I asked where, she pointed to our sink?
I'm gonna have to work on that:)
Precious, Michelle! We do this, too, and then move on to the Heidelberg as they get older. May you always be faithful to teach them the truth of God's Word!
That's great that you're teaching your children at such a young age. Having sacrificed thinking in the place of experience for so long, we're finally tackling the Puritan catechism. Better late than never!
Oh, I love watching them memorize catechism truths also. We use Big Truths for Little Kids and Training Heart, Teaching Minds. Great stuff.
Such a blessing to see!
How incredibly wonderful it is to be able to teach our children these truths from a very young age...isn't God good?? May HE give you much wisdom as you seek to raise your little ones for HIM!
Many blessings,
Camille
Love catechism. We use Big Ideas for Little People and Training Hearts, Teaching Minds. I am so blessed by listening to my kids memorize and learn truths.
Great job!
Thanks for visiting, Ladies! I didn't even know catechisms were used outside the catholic church until about a year and a half ago! And to think there are so many! I'll have to look up the Big Ideas for Little People, GFG!
Ma- I get some pretty interesting things like that, too. :)
When my (grown) children were small, I'd never heard of such things. I had to do everything "off-the-cuff," so to speak. I think you young mothers are doing such a wonderful job of training your children and sharing your ideas and resources with each other.
