This creative book, which contains some surprise interactive elements that your child will love, will become an invaluable resource to your family prayer life. Katie Warner, noted Catholic author of numerous wonderful books for children writes: "Years ago, I started having my young children practice silent time each day. They loved the story of Elijah and the still small voice, and we'd talk about it in the same way this book does. That daily silent time practice became the seed concept for this book. I think it's so important for little ones to learn early and intentionally how to quiet themselves so they can hear God's voice. At first, our silent time training only lasted a minute. Then two, three, four minutes and more - a building block to future holy hours that our little ones will spend in the chapel or at home listening for God's voice and getting to know their Savior and Best Friend." The ability to be silent is a skill that even many adults have never developed. Give your child this priceless gift and give it early. For it is one that will reap eternal rewards.

In this revised and expanded edition of Faith & Play(TM) Quaker Stories for Friends Trained in the Godly Play(R) Method, stories published before 2015 have been revised based on experience and feedback, and new stories have been added along with additional supplementary materials developed to support storytellers. Faith & Play(TM) is a story-based curriculum focused on building spiritual community with children and offering them images and language to express their wonder and experience of the Divine. Faith & Play(TM) grew out of Friends' work with the Godly Play(R) story curriculum, which embodies the Montessori belief that play is children's work and has dignity. These curricula support continuing revelation; multiple perspectives on a story; silence, reflection, and corporate sharing as valuable components of the spiritual life; and the diversity of ways the Spirit works within each person. While the Godly Play stories used by Friends are based on the Bible, Faith & Play stories include Quaker faith, practice and witness, as well as some Bible content told in ways that reflect Quaker sensibilities. Faith & Play stories are meant to be used in conjunction with Godly Play and we do not recommend using either resource without adequate training.

How do children experience and understand God? How can adults help children grow their life of faith? Throughout more than a decade of field research, children's spirituality experts Catherine Stonehouse and Scottie May listened to children talk about their relationships with God, observed children and their parents in learning and worship settings, and interviewed adults about their childhood faith experiences. This accessibly written book weaves together their findings to offer a glimpse of the spiritual responsiveness and potential of children. Through case studies, it provides insight into children's perceptions of God and how they process their faith. In addition, the book suggests how parents, teachers, and ministry leaders can more effectively relate to and work with children and pre-adolescents to nurture their faith, offering a helpful picture of adults and children on the spiritual journey together.
