5 SIMPLE STEPS TO BUILD YOUR YOUNG

CHILD’S SELF CONFIDENCE & STOP BULLYING!

Bullying is running rampant in our schools. Everyone knows this. Our kids are being subjected to insulting put-downs, hurtful words, and unkind behaviors. And, it’s not just by the other kids.

It’s been awhile since I have written in this blog. Had a couple of injuries – hurt my knee a bunch & got a shot at the dentist that hit a nerve causing ALOT of pain on one side of my face. Both injuries have taken a whole year to feel better. Consequently, I didn’t feel like writing in my blog. But, now I’m back and just wanted to say I am so excited that my first book, TIMMY TEACUP…..

(Proverbs 22:6): “Start children off on the way they should go…when they are old they will not turn from it.” The Bible says there is something significant about learning lessons early in life. Life lessons based on God’s love for them help children have something to fall back on when they face adversity and problems later in life.

I believe you should teach very young children to love God first and foremost; and, then love themselves just the way they are. God loves them just the…..

Kids have such open minds when it comes to new concepts that make sense to them. You just have to reach them on their level.  Lots of times the concept can be taught through a story character that they can relate to. Something fun or exciting can grasp their attention and stick with them longer than just words alone.  They remember the story. It might not seem that they have remembered the concept, but if you bring up the story…..

In about a month, Valentine’s Day will be here again! It’s a day about LOVE and ways to show your love. With your kids, what would be a good way to show them how much you love them? TELL THEM of course! But, here’s another way: Read them a STORY (maybe TIMMY TEACUP TRANSFORMS? Hint, hint!) about love – loving themselves and how much their family loves them. Young children relate to storytelling so much more than other things. Read a simple…..
