Publisher's Description

Prepares moms for the time when their school-aged kids take their first few steps into the world and away from mama's nest.

Sending a child off to school is a whole lot more than stocking up on school supplies and packing a (somewhat) healthy lunch. This helpful guidebook walks Christian moms through:

discovering a long-term vision for the person that Christ has purposed for your child to become
instilling a sense of "who I am and where I came from" in your child
choosing a school for your kids
helping your kids to develop key attributes—courage, kindness, perseverance—that lead to success in school
dealing with teachers, sports, and lessons
navigating those difficult conversations that will come sooner rather than later
a special feature includes sidebars "From the Principal's Office" with insights from a 35-year elementary school principal and educator

Moms will learn how to cover their children in prayer so that their launch into the world, and away from her control, is done with grace and wisdom—helping them grow into the men and women God intended them to be.

The Christian Mama's Guide to the First School Years: Everything You Need to Know to Survive (and Love) Sending Your Kid Off into the Big Wide World - eBook 4.5 5 2 2

As mothers whoÃ¢ÂÂve experienced sending their children off to school, we all know how taxing this milestone can be. Most of us become fraught with worry (and get downright emotional) as we struggle with the idea of having to let go, and face the fact that our babies are indeed growing up. But as Erin MacPherson so eloquently discusses throughout her book, "The Christian MamaÃ¢ÂÂs Guide to the First School Years," these are the moments where moms like us can place our trust in God and His plans for our childrenÃ¢ÂÂs future. This is the time where we can step out in our faith, and send our struggles straight up to Him. And as a mom who definitely understands what battling those Ã¢ÂÂback-to-school bluesÃ¢ÂÂ are all about, MacPherson equips each of her readers with loads of practical advice, invaluable information, beautifully scripted (not to mention, reassuring) words of faith, and plenty of comic relief to go around. So, if youÃ¢ÂÂve got kiddos headed off to school soon (or even if theyÃ¢ÂÂve begun their elementary days already), be sure to arm yourself with this book. YouÃ¢ÂÂll be so glad you did. -Jenny Lee Sulpizio, Author of Ã¢ÂÂConfessions of a Wonder Woman Wannabe.Ã¢ÂÂ January 12, 2013

Funny stories and helpful tips to wise parenting I enjoyed this book! There are a number of helpful tips on parenting my child to have a genuine faith as he enters the "big wide world". The "15 factors" is especially helpful. Great idea to include the perspectives from a professional and seasoned educator alongside with Erin's "real world parenting stories and insights". That was smart! February 22, 2013
