7 Tools for Cultivating Your Child's Potential

Loved this book. I needed some encouraging in my home school and I was not let down. I walked away refreshed and excited about planning another school year. The main part of the book is centered around Ms. Tyler's own personal story of raising her three children and educating them at home. After reading this book I decided I needed to start a book shelf simply for the books I should read every year. This is one of those books that every year I will learn something new from, you simply can't get it all in one setting.Her story and testimony was inspiring. Their struggle to home school when home school was illegal in the USA was incredible and how they battled for that freedom till they finally won. Truly inspiring!!If you need a pick me up in your home school I would highly recommend this book!! If you are wondering why you are home schooling or the purpose -- I would recommend this book!!

Good book, good advice, good condition

This is an excellent resource for parents as they try to bring out the God designed potential int their children. I know that I will be consulting this book many times in the future.

Very encouraging book. I would highly recommend it.

In spite of the unique title of this attractive book, and regardless of your age or station in life, here is a combination life story/practical advice/devotional book which is guaranteed to hold your attention. To give you a taste here are two quotes:P110 "America has gone from a country that once welcomed God (and His Word) to one where His Word is unwelcome outside the church. When a Christian view of the world prevailed in our society, being able to define worldview was not so important. Now that we live in a society that prefers to view the world apart from God, Christians must educate themselves on what a biblical worldview is and why it's important. As Christian parents, we must commit ourselves to understanding worldview issues for our children's sake because they are confronted daily with peer pressure and a pop culture that are often openly hostile to their values. If we choose to remain ignorant, our children's faith will suffer."p.119"We must communicate to our children that each of them, in God's economy, brings important gifts to employ in this world for God's glory and our neighbor's welfare. That is why we work. The engineer, the doctor, the mother, the lawyer, the car mechanic, the writer all serve God by dong their work well--by using their gifts to solve problems and improve the world. This idea of improving the world at every level is what God told Adam and Eve to do in the Garden of Eden."The end result of reading this lively piece of writing will be that you will get a glimpse of the value of any learning derived from "home" and an appreciation for the involvement of all parents, and grandparents, as they complement whatever style of schooling the children may be having.

This book has it all. I LOVED IT!!! It has helped me realize the areas in my parenting that I can change to help my kids grow to be great adults. It is easy to read, direct and to the point; not alot of complicated stuff that dulls the brain. It is geared to help the homeschooling parent, but will help anyone who wants to cultivate great kids. It will give you perspective to what is really important when it comes to teaching our children. KUDOS TO ZAN TYLER on a book I will read again and again.
