Parenting Through The Four Seasons (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781941173428)

Parenting is NOT for the faint-hearted! Just ask the sleep-deprived mom taking care of both an infant and a toddler, or the dad at his wits' end with lecturing his middle schooler about doing household chores. Like the four seasons, parents experience beautiful days, bleak days, and everything in between. So what types of strategies can parents use to navigate these changing seasons of life with their children?

Parenting Through the Four Seasons delivers candid, child-rearing content from a mom of four who is raising children in all different stages of life. In an engaging, anecdotal fashion, this book offers proven, practical ideas for navigating through everyday parenting challenges. How-tos on implementing successful routines, protecting family time at home, and helping children with transitions as they grow older are all packed into this parent-to-parent guide.

You'll also encounter insightful tips for placing priority on the marriage relationship, age-appropriate discipline tactics, as well as establishing boundaries for extracurriculars and digital devices. This is not your parents' parenting book! Peek in the window of the Webb family's life as they parent through the seasons and provide you with hope along the way.

FROM THE BACK COVER:

This book teaches the tactics of a Christian couple raising their four children into confident young adults who know their worth in this world. Strategies addressed include:

• Placing priority on the marriage relationship
• Routines as a staple in early childhood
• Age-appropriate discipline tactics
• Transitioning children into responsibility
• Establishing boundaries for extracurriculars and digital devices

Like seasons, children transform before our very eyes. Some times in their lives can bring bitterness like the frigid winds of winter. Other times spawn growth like the green grass in spring. And although each season eventually comes to an end, it feels like it will last for an eternity. Peek in on the journey of Chanty and her husband parenting their children and discover how it can help to transform your family.
