Going for Growth | Early Years
Ideas and resources for families and churches to nurture the spiritual life and faith of children in their early years.
From their first moments of life, children are learning about and responding to the world. But what are they learning about and responding to spiritually? This section of the Going for Growth website offers ideas and resources for families and churches to nurture the spiritual life and faith of children in their early years. This section of the site has particular areas of interest including:
- Ideas and resources for church based toddler groups
- Thoughts on introducing Bible stories to toddlers
- Practical articles to help new parents think about how to nurture Christian faith in their young children
- Research by 9Dot Research for the Church of England with the Church in Wales, exploring the range of church-based toddler groups and practical ways they might be encouraged to become more confident in their Christian distinctiveness. You can download the research here.
