I’ve
been wanting to do a character study with my girls for some time now,
but just never found the time to get one together. I recently stumbled
upon We Choose Virtues (http://www.wechoosevirtues.com/)
and decided it was worth the money to save me the time and energy of
creating my own study. The materials are bright and colorful and the
phrases are catchy and I knew my girls would love them. And I was right!
We bought the parenting faith-based cards and my girls can’t wait to
learn a new one each week. They portray a funny child with a silly name
and a story describing the character trait, a “catch-phrase” for the
children to memorize, a virtue “antonym” to help the child know how NOT
to act, a helpful scripture, ideas for teaching the children, and how to
apologize when you do not display the virtue.
My girls really enjoy
saying the catch phrase and it makes it easy for me to remind them when
they forget to act rightly. I simply say the first word or two in the
phrase and they sheepishly grin and finish the phrase for me and realize
that they need to apologize. We also bought the 100 days of virtue
chart and stickers because my girls love sticker charts and it has also
been very helpful.
The materials are a little more pricey than I would
prefer, but it was worth it to us to find something that my girls
absolutely love to study to teach them godly virtues.
