These characteristics can be observed in children if those who work with them know what to look for and are alert to the time, place and space in which children find themselves. This book provides ways in which schoolteachers and parents can nurture and foster these particular characteristics of children's spirituality. It also considers two factors, material pursuit and trivialising, which may inhibit children's expression of ChildrenReligious lifeReligious education of childrenChildrenReligious life.Religious education of children.204.083Hyde Brendan1599020MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827903403321Children and spirituality4096236UNINA
