Description
This book introduces the concept and basic vocabulary of virtues. It helps children to recognize and label the behaviors which they are striving to develop. When a child attains a virtue, that trait will become almost habitual for them. But it isn't always easy. Life produces many challenges, and today's culture often seems to oppose virtue. However, through faith, example, and practicing individual virtues, a child will keeping growing through adulthood, planting more seeds of God's goodness along the way. We hope you have fun introducing virtues to the children in your life. This book is just the start. Be creative, and don't forget to catch your children being good! Praise their every effort toward goodness and God-likeness.
