From the Author
Bedtime routines are especially important to your child's health and your sanity. It's the opportunity to turn off all the gadgets and electronics so you can share valuable time with your child, and it's a great time to anchor your family in faith in Jesus.
"Bedtime is more than a bridge between day and night. For a child, sleep-time conversations are an opportunity to review the day and share fears, hopes, and dreams. Shielded from the day's distractions, at bedtime, we recapture the purity of the parent-child relationship. The brief talk-triggers in "Little Visits at Bedtime" will help you and your child expand on both the big events and small details that define life and God is truly with him or her. A little visit with God at bedtime transitions a child into a gentle close of the day as he or she "moves" from your loving arms to the comforting arms of his or her heavenly Father."
—Mary Manz Simon, author and practical parenting specialist
