How do you include younger and older children in the Home Lessons?
Each Home Lesson offers parents a great deal of flexibility and a variety of activities. This allows parents, who are the best judges of their child’s needs, skills, and attention span, to tailor lessons to their family’s needs. We encourage parents to challenge, but not overwhelm their children. With younger children it is recommended you approach topics at the most basic level knowing that they will be covered again the next time through the three-year cycle.
Can you use Family Formation with high school students?
Family Formation is designed primarily for use with kindergarten through sixth grade students, but many families get all their children (including preschoolers and highschoolers) involved in doing the Home Lessons. The games, stories, and activities that reinforce each lesson are fun ways for the entire family to learn, and there are many benefits to having your entire family grow in the faith together.
