Show Notes – Teaching Kids to Think

Teaching kids to think for themselves is my pet peeve… one year in teaching a class at church I was astounded to find that the students could not give me answers to questions about their thoughts about God – they wanted to know if it was the correct answer… seriously! How do you raise kids that think? Can you teach kids to think? I say, yes – and here are the main points I make in this podcast on Vintage Homeschool Moms.

Teaching Kids to THINK by…

Giving them a good foundation

Teach them the definition of worldview

Give them colored glasses – different colors if you can find them – discuss

Read good books as a family – read aloud – and discuss

Fill minds with GOOD – garbage in garbage out

Explain consequences – school of thought of “formation” and understanding

Give them time to think

Have good discussions – family discussions

Discuss – good – better – best – God’s version

Understanding choices
