PRESCHOOL
There are more changes in the first years of life than in any others. That means the world of a toddler is unstable. So it’s no wonder that during these preschool years, children internally are asking two critical questions: “Am I Safe? Am I Able?” They’re motivated by safety and so as parents we have a role to play in embracing their physical needs. At this stage, they need to know God’s love and meet God’s family.
