Synopsis
Good habits shape good character.
Just as a train’s direction is established by its track, good habits set the direction of our children’s lives for smooth running, now and into adulthood.
We all know that changing thoughts and actions can be hard work. But forming a good habit is easier when we are motivated and connected to the result.
As Charlotte Mason said, " 'Sow a habit, reap a character.' But we must go a step further back, we must sow the idea or notion which makes the act worth while."
You see, great ideas are powerful motivators! And that’s where Laying Down the Rails for Children comes in.
This companion to the award-winning book, Laying Down the Rails, expands on the principles of good habits with a practical how-to guide and action plan to use with your children. It is filled with classic stories and Bible passages, beautiful poems, life activities, inspiring quotations—living ideas that will nestle into your children's minds and motivate them toward the habits of good character.
