"Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up." -Deuteronomy 10:16
Thanks to Amanda at http://impressyourkids.org we have a new Sunday tradition. We started with our "A" verse this week, writing the verse on a poster, and decorating it with things that start with A.
My 10-year-old thought the crafty part was a little "5-year-oldish" so I may let him take on more of a teaching role next week. He also looked up the Bible verse and read it to us.
We hung our poster on the wall in the breakfast area where we can see it throughout the day. The kids had the verse memorized by Monday! It has been a great reminder to all of us this week to practice giving a each other a gentle answer.....Mom included!
