As parents, it is very important to us that we instill virtues into our children at young ages. Topics like self-control, forgiveness, contentment, attentive, etc. are areas we need to be teaching our children now and not trying to teach them later in life. With We Choose Virtues, we are able to teach our children these virtues using the visual aid of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly.
As a member of the TOS Crew, we were given the Virtue Clue Cards, a downloadable Teacher's handbook, a downloadable coloring book, Core Values Behavior Chart & Bible Verses and a family character assessment. The mission behind We Choose Virtues is to equip parents with the proper tools to help their children develop Christ-like characteristics.
We found the easiest way to use We Choose Virtues was to choose one card a week to focus on. That way, could really put the virtue and how to use it to heart and to practice. We also colored the coordinating color sheet that went along with it and hung it as a visual reminder of what virtue we were striving to put to practice and learn to model that particular week. The Teacher's Handbook provides tons of great ideas and suggestions to help you thoroughly teach on each individual virtue. The Family Character Assessment allows you to see what areas need a little more work and helps you set goals for future usage.
We Choose Virtues is highly affordable as some materials (downloadable) are FREE and prices range all the way up to $200 for a deluxe classroom kit. Church kits, community and Christian school kits are all also available. This would make a great addition to any area where you want to teach children an easy way to learn to be more Christ-like in their everyday lives.
