Today's busy families often race from one activity to the next with meals, homework, chores, and discipline somehow fitting between the cracks. For families wanting to inject some fun back into their daily routines, Silvana Clark comes to the rescue. Although she can't promise parents a good night's sleep or extra hours in the day, she can give them all the tools they need to help foster a feeling of family fun and togetherness based on solid biblical teaching. Parents will welcome Clark's humorous stories of family life, as well as practical suggestions on discipline, bedtime, and homework. Fun-Filled Parenting takes the stress out of parenting by offering a myriad of ideas for spending time with children in a positive, fun way. This amazing book is for all parents who want to see their children develop into self-confident, positive adults with a strong sense of their spiritual roots.
