Teaching Children to Love Thy Neighbor
Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
As homeschooling parents, we work endlessly to ensure our children master the basics of reading, mathematics, and grammar. We allow caterpillars to live in jars on our counter tops and build pyramids out of sugar cubes. We pull out tubs of paint and piles of clay and encourage our young ones to create.
But, are we as diligent at teaching them from an early age how to care for those less fortunate than themselves?
I’m over at The Homeschool Classroom today. Join me there for my post: Teaching Children to Love Thy Neighbor. Finding opportunities for children to give of themselves can be difficult, but with a bit of time and research, I’ve found there are plenty of ways for even very young children to give and to love.
