The Christian Mama's Guide to the Grade School Years

Sending a child off to school is a whole lot more than stocking up on school supplies and packing a (somewhat) healthy lunch. This helpful guidebook walks Christian mums through:

• discovering a long-term vision for the person that Christ has purposed for your child to become

• instilling a sense of “who I am and where I came from” in your child

• choosing a school for your kids

• helping your kids to develop key attributes—courage, kindness, perseverance—that lead to success in school

• dealing with teachers, sports and lessons

• navigating those difficult conversations that will come sooner rather than later

• a special feature includes sidebars “From the Principal’s Office” with insights from a 35-year elementary school principal and educator

Mums will learn how to cover their children in prayer so that their launch into the world, and away from her control, is done with grace and wisdom—helping them grow into the men and women God intended them to be.
