subject: Recommended Activities For Christian Children [print this page] Many parents struggle with finding afterschool activities for their Christian children. The issue usually ends up being that either the children do not like what the parent has suggested or the parent does not feel good about what the child has suggested. There needs to be a happy medium between the two which means there needs to be a wholesome activity that parents will feel good about while children will still enjoy it. This article was written with the intention of recommending several activities that will fit the bill.
Adults have book clubs and enjoy them-children can do the same. Encouraging children to gather together with their group of friends to have Christian book reviews helps to bring together the best of both worlds. Any children who like to read and like to hang out with their friends will be excited for a group situation such as this. Of course, any Christian parent will appreciate knowing what the children are reading and discussing. This makes a win-win situation for all involved and would be a highly recommended activity for Christian children.
Many parents realize the many dangers available on the internet today. This ends up clouding the realization of the many positive aspect that the World Wide Web can bring to someone's life. There are online youth bible study forums, for instance, that absolutely provide a safe and enjoyable place for the Christian youth to gather at and hang out. Children love to chat with friends and what better place could children find good friends than at a Christian youth forum? Encouraging children to participate in these will help them to connect with other kids who are interested in the same things and share the same values.
Service projects are another great way for kids to spend their time. Of course, whenever a child hears the word, 'service', it of course will not sound fun. That's why it should be presented as what it really is - an opportunity to meet new friends and accomplish a common goal. Picking up trash, visiting the elderly, repairing a shed or anything that needs to be done can be done with the right attitude. Children who view it as a fun family project are those who will enjoy it. Indeed, there are several recommended activities for Christian children. The ones listed above are merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to activities that both children and parents will feel good and be excited about.
