I think one of the hardest parts of homeschooling is the character training you do with your kids. I have tried several different programs and they are either way too detailed or too childish to include my older boys. So we always dropped them with no hopes of finding anything worth while. Then I got the opportuity to do a review of the We Choose Virtues Parenting Cards. After using these cards for the last few weeks, I can honestly say that I have now, finally, found a program that works for us and can include both my younger boys and older boys. These cards are just awesome! I can’t think of a better word to say here. I was so excited when they arrived and when I opened the cards and looked at them, I was in awe.
We Choose Virtues Parenting Cards
These cards are so vibrant and sturdy, they are just inspiring when you look at them. They are large, colorful and include one virtue per card. The front has a picture of a kid from VirtueVille with a character trait and a catchphrase of a positive action. This is followed by the negative form of the catchphrase to show attitudes and actions that are hurtful or wrong and need to be changed along with a scripture reference. The back of each card contains Teachable Moments, a User Challenge, a story about the kid from VirtueVille that is pictured on the front of the card and other activities to reinforce the character trait.
The 12 virtues covered are:
I am Diligent
I am Kind
I am Helpful
I am Obedient
I am Forgiving
I am Perseverant
I am Gentle
I am Patient
I am Self-Controlled
I am Content
I am Honest
I am Attentive
We Choose Virtues offers several products to go along with the Parenting Cards that help reinforce these character traits. They offer teaching cards, flash cards, posters, awards and sticker charts and several downloadable items such as a Teachers Guide, a Bible Reference, Coloring Pages, Character Assessment Chart and much more!
You can see the actual size of the cards here. I placed 2 of them next to an 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheet of paper so you can see that they are each half the size of a piece of paper.
