This
week your child learned that God created each one of us
as a unique individual and in His own image and
likeness. It is important to recognize and reinforce
these truths, both in ourselves and in our children. A
central affirmation of our Catholic faith is the
goodness of God's creation. Children need to feel that
they are accepted and loved as they are. When we love
and accept ourselves as loved by God, we are more able
to love and accept others.
Let
your child know how special she or he is to you.
Remember that your child first experiences God's love
through your parental love.
Go
over the Faith Summary together. Talk to your
child about the fact that God has made each one of us
wonderful.
New
Friends
Have
your child tell about meeting new friends in
kindergarten. Ask: What is special about them? Then have
your child draw one or two new friends on a sheet of
paper.
