While teaching kids

When we teach them to read, then at every opportunity we make them read.

Like road signs or adverts on buses or headlines in the paper. AT every opportunity we make them try their reading skills.

Similarly to help them with math we ask them questions while at supermarkets or make them answer additions while eating cookies etc. We find opportunity to play with numbers to develop their skills in math.

Do we do that with their spiritual development???

But we can...by
1. Identifying the good in the TV shows & movies ( if you watch they all have the good win over the evil & about being good to others theme). Kids may not notice that till you point out and soon they will see it too
2. Identifying with personal incidences about making choices based on what is right. We do them but don't necessarily share with kids!!!
3. Do character analysis of book characters - a bit tricky as we tend to be judgemental so avoid real people

and am sure there are many other ways too.. Please add your ides in the comments.
