Have you ever heard “All children are gifts from God” only to roll your eyes and think “Ha! They don’t know what goes on in my house!” If you don't look for God's gifts in your child, you may be missing some of His best. Come laugh and be encouraged to see what God had in mind when He designed your child. Learn to see your child through God’s spectacles and to stay focused on God’s vision of your child...not the world’s.

Can a simple 20-minute lesson drag into 2 hours? Does your little wiggler seem to fall out of his chair a great deal? Is he distracted by things others don’t notice?

(Best for Pre-K through 6th grade.)

Continuing from session one, more ideas to use with the highly distractible child. Nothing is repeated from the first session.

Get a fresh injection of great ideas and a reminder of why these kids are so great. (Best for Pre-K through 6th grade.)

Too often we’ve just accepted how busy our lives are supposed to be, but many of us are running through life in a frenzied fog.
