  Start With The Heart

  $18.89

  Parenting strategies you can be proud of

  You know the feeling. You got frustrated, desperate, or overwhelmed and you reacted before you could think it through. Whether it’s a one-time thing or it becomes a habit, we all parent in ways we don’t like. But it doesn’t have to continue. Whether it’s bribery, yelling, counting to three, or threats of punishment you didn’t mean to make, reacting never feels good. But if you can learn to act with intentionality, you’ll feel better about your choices and be grateful for the results.

  Dr. Kathy Koch (pronounced “cook”), author of Screens and Teens and 8 Great Smarts, will teach you proven strategies for training your child’s heart and parenting in a way that honors God. She’ll help you move your child from, “I can’t, I won’t,” to “I can, I will, and I did.” We can do better than “Because I said so.” or “No screen time for 3 days.” We can do better than mere behavior modification. We can change our children’s hearts and teach them to do what is good, godly, and right even when we’re not around. Once you’ve learned to put these motivation strategies in place there’s no more need to nag, you’ll be astounded at what your kids will do without being asked. Dr. Kathy doesn’t offer a quick-fix. Starting with the heart is all about changing what children believe in order to change their behavior. And learning to use this kind of motivation takes effort, consistency, and strategy, but it works. And it’s never too late! If you’re willing to commit to a little hard work up front, you’ll enjoy your kids, your life, and yourself much more when you learn to start with the heart.

  Help your children be smart with “their “smarts
  At one time or another, most kids will ask (or secretly wonder), Am I smart’ But a better question is, In what “way” am I smart’ Dr. Kathy Koch s down-to-earth and practical guide to the theory of multiple intelligences helps parents and teachers discern and develop their children s unique wiring.

  “8 Great Smarts “will help you:
  *Identify how your child can best learn and study
  *Explore your child s characteristic spiritual struggles and his or her ways of connecting to God
  *Learn how you can awaken and nurture your child s weaker intelligences
  *Uncover how your behavior can paralyze your child s smarts, and what to do about it
  *Recognize how your child s misbehavior may be connected to his or her strengths
  *Discover creative teaching methods and potential careers that are ideal for each intelligence

  Every child is some combination of the following smarts: “word, logic, picture, music, body, nature, people, “and” self.” The sooner you and your child discover his or her best smarts, the sooner you can nurture their potential and help them to flourish and use their gifts for God and others.
