Growing Responsible Kids: Seeds for Success.
Petersen, Evelyn
To teach responsible behavior means to encourage children to be motivated from the inside and to follow rules that help themselves and others. This guide, part of the "Seeds for Success" series, provides advice for parents for creating in children an inner sense of responsibility by means of nearly 100 simple activity ideas designed for use with 3- to 5-year-olds. Activities are offered in the following areas: (1) "Cultivating Self-Discipline"; (2) "Nurturing a Work Ethic"; (3) "Nurturing Family Responsibility"; (4) "Dealing with Family Challenges"; (5) "Nurturing Community Responsibility"; (6) "Introducing Social Skills"; (7) "Nurturing Anti-Bias Attitudes"; and (8) "Cultivating Environmental Awareness."
