As mommas we spend much of our days talking to our kids. We tell them to come to the table, to clean up their toys, get dressed, and so on. There are so many opportunities throughout the day to communicate instructions.
But what about conversations? Not the one-sided commands that we have to issue. I’m talking about the times when we get to enjoy the back and forth talking with our children.
Both ways of talking to and with our children have value. But only one provides opportunities to engage with the heart and mind of our child. I invite you to a conversation Melanie and I had about the different ways we engage with our children in meaningful conversation and why one way offers unique benefits over the other. Listen below and read more meaningful conversation tips. And discover more at the next ABCJesusLovesMe Conference. Ticket Giveaway happening now on ABCJesusLovesMe social media!
We are going into our 3rd year using the ABCJesusLovesMe Curriculum, and I could go on for days about my love for it. I recommend it to everyone. It’s such a great balance of fun, play activities and learning, crafty activities. My kiddos beg to do “school” every day. The website has some amazing resources. You can use the search function there and find information on just about anything! Also, you can search in the group for answers. It’s a wonderful family to be part of.” ~ Justina on Facebook
