Children and Spirituality
Brendan HydePaperback 2008-01-01
Publisher Description
"In this book, Brendan Hyde identifies four characteristics of children's spirituality: the felt sense, integrating awareness, weaving the threads of meaning, and spiritual questing. These characteristics can be observed in children if those who work with them know what to look for and are alert to the time, place and space in which children find themselves." "This compelling book provides ways in which schoolteachers and parents can nurture and foster these particular characteristics of children's spirituality. It also considers two factors, material pursuit and trivializing, which may inhibit children's expression of their spirituality." "Children and Spirituality provides valuable insights for educators, policy makers, parents, and others who work with and seek to support and develop the spirituality of children."--BOOK JACKET.
