Walk With The Wise
Items Needed: Bible
Talk with your child about choosing friends wisely Read Psalm 1:1 together What does this verse tell us about who we spend time with? We will be blessed if we choose friends who don't make bad choices No one is perfect, but we want to choose friends who love God and want to obey Him If we make friends with wise people we will become wiser (Proverbs 13:20)
Here are a few tips to help your child build good friendships:
-Practice a simple greeting for your child to use in a setting where they might meet a new friend
-Brainstorm some simple games or jokes your child can share with other children
-Be faithful to attend church and invite some children for a playdate
-Enroll your child in a new class or sport where they can meet other children
-Stay involved and encourage relationships with children who share your family’s values
