Often as a new school year begins we come to find that character and habit training are some of the essentials that need to be taught so that the rest of the learning flows more smoothly throughout our days.

What may feel like getting off schedule may really be an opportunity to teach our children what they really need to be learning in that moment.

Rather than seeing it as a distraction we can see it as an opportunity to teach skills that will carry our children through adulthood and help them to become better stewards of their possessions and of the people around them.

It's easy to get frustrated when our plans seem to get derailed but remember that life doesn't always go as planned and we as their parents have the opportunity to teach them the skill of going with the ebb and flow of life, to transition well, and to offer grace in all circumstances.

Here at The Peaceful Press our desire is to come alongside you and to help equip you and your children in these endeavors.

We have created a Chore and Routine Pack to help you to teach your children life skills that will help your days run smoother and that will teach them skills that will last a lifetime.
