MORNING TIME

Divide up this month’s memory verse so a different person has each sentence. Come up with a motion for each sentence. Practice saying each sentence of the verse in order, while doing the motion, so you can remember to persevere.

Ask a kid: What is the hardest thing you’ve ever had to do? How did you get through it?

MEAL TIME

Watch this month’s music video on Studio252.tv or the Parent Cue app. What can you imagine that seems impossible? DRIVE TIME

PARENT TIME

Ask a parent: When has someone helped you persevere?

Read Acts 1-2. Ask God to remind you of His presence and help you overcome the tough situations that you’re facing. BED TIME

When math homework gets hard, some kids push through and other kids give up. When the new soccer move is tricky, some kids keep practicing and others want to quit. What is it that keeps one kid trying when another declares it too hard? Perseverance. It’s this refusal to give up that helps kids push through when life gets hard. Often kids need encouragement from other trusted adults to persevere. Maybe a math tutor or a neighbor can help figure out the math homework. A soccer coach or family friend who used to play may have a new approach to learning that new move. When life gets hard for your son or daughter, consider if a trusted adult might be able to help them persevere.
