1. Having children is a great joy for a mother and father. Tell your child how happy you are to be their parent. Talk about Jesus' mother, Mary, and her joy in being His mother.
2. When Jesus was 12 He was a great teacher. Because our children do not have the same attributes as Jesus, we must set an example.

If you are in need of material to help you teach your young child, ask your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ for help.
