A child lives out how the unseen parts of himself—his heart, his mind, his strength, and soul—are growing along with the rest of him.
This is an Absorb book, which connects studies about the facts of God with a child's inner life. Children assimilate on a personal level who God is and how they are made to be with him, trust him and love him—the life of a believer. (Ages 3-6)
Building on the book
- Be on the lookout for your child acting from the heart. Name her behavior when you observe her being kind and generous. While giving praise to your child, you also have a chance make a connection to God's grace, which inspires us to kindness and generosity.
- Reinforce the concept of outside and inside. There are dozens of opportunities around the house and in nature – a box filled with puzzle pieces, an egg in the kitchen, a seed pod fallen from a tree.
- Help your child to savor the good feelings that come when he helps you with chores or succeeds at a difficult task. Ultimately children need to be guided by their inner resources, so help them recognize the positive spiritual results of doing what is right.
