Send us a text

Welcome to another episode of 5-Minute Parenting! Today's guest, Terry Heller Brown, shares with us valuable insights on recognizing and seizing teachable moments with our children.
Key Takeaways:

- Use the Acronym STOP: "S T O P" stands for "Stop," "Take" notice of emotions, "Open" up the conversation, and "Praise" their insights and present solutions.

- Embrace interruptions: Teachable moments often interrupt our plans, but they are invaluable opportunities to disciple our children and equip them for a life following Christ.

- Encourage critical thinking: Praise and encourage your children's insights and attempts at reasoning, even if they're a little off, to help them feel heard and seen.
-Keep an eye out for the episode, and don't miss out on Terry's new children's picture book, "A World of Pancakes." Thank you, Terry, for sharing your insights on recognizing and seizing teachable moments!
