How Can I Love? Family Plus PS

Hi Parents and Grandparents of Preschoolers - 

This month, preschoolers are learning that they can love one another. Wow! What a hard concept for a little person! Or is it? What are we teaching preschoolers when we teach them to share? to take turns? to take care of those who are hurt? to help? to show affection? Aren’t we teaching them to love one another?
We’re teaching them, yes. But are we modeling it? Children learn more by observation than we ever realize (or want to admit). Do they see us loving one another as they watch us? Do they see us sharing? taking turns? caring for those around us? helping? loving? Do they see us loving one another?
Take advantage of a few opportunities this month to love one another with your preschooler. Deliver a meal to a sick friend. Send a card to a grandparent. Let the person with fewer groceries go in front of you in line. Whatever you do, know that you are a making a lasting impression on your preschooler, and he will learn to love one another, too.

This Sunday, March 1, 2015, your preschooler will learn that:

Jesus tells a story about a man who builds bigger barns to hold all of his extra food rather than sharing it with people who need it. Luke 12:16-21

MEMORY VERSE - Love one another. John 13:34
BASIC TRUTH -  Jesus wants to be my friend forever.
KEY QUESTION - How can I love?
BOTTOM LINE - I can love like Jesus.

Thank you for allowing us to partner with you in guiding your child spiritually. 

Bridget :)
