Teach Your Baby to Read: The Gentle Revolution
by Glenn DomanThe effect of this book may well mark a turning point in the education of our children. Glenn Doman's work in teaching children to read at a very young age is fascinating and it is to be welcomed. The younger we are, the easier we often find it to learn, and there is no reason to deny children the opportunity to learn to read while they are still very small. Why should we limit our children to television and comic strips when reading may be well within their grasp, can give them such pleasure, and is so vital for their education?

Teachable Moments
by Marybeth HicksNationally syndicated columnist and media advisor on all things parenting, Marybeth Hicks outlines the overarching issues and objectives in using daily encounters with the culture to impart the values and virtues of Christianity. Through entertaining and instructive questions and answers, she provides concrete examples of teachable moments that will ring true for every family.Never have Christian families been so challenged by the world around them to instill and instruct their children in the tenets of their faith. Moral relativism literally seeps into every facet of family life and saturates our popular culture. A ubiquitous media presence that defines our daily experience also is defining the attitudes and behaviors of those who consume it. Yet within this pervasive secular culture, Christian families encounter "teachable moments," those unplanned but unmatched opportunities to put their faith into action and live out the values and virtues embodied in Jesus Christ. When looking for teachable moments, parents, and coaches must approach each day with intentionality, seeking out and capitalizing on opportunities to incorporate life lessons into every day experiences amid the culture. Teachable moments might be as simple as incorporating values about empathy and compassion in young friendships, or as complex and consequential as understanding the nature of the culture's destructive messages about human sexuality. They might present themselves in song lyrics, teacher's comments, television shows, social media interactions, and current events. Most certainly, teachable moments emerge in parenting decisions, family relationships, school situations, and in opportunities for freedom and responsibility. Teachable Moments outlines the overarching issues and objectives in using daily encounters with the culture to impart the values and virtues of Christianity. Through entertaining and instructive questions and answers, author Marybeth Hicks provides concrete examples of teachable moments that will ring true for every family.
