A Creed For Kijidi-rgartner* and Mother*
-1 believo In little children as the most precious gift of heaven
to earth.
I believe they have immortal souls created in the Imago of
God. coming forth from Him and to return to Him.
1 believe that In every child there are Infinite possibilities for
ood or evil, and that the kind of influences with which wo sur
round their early childhood largely determines their future character.
I believe In play as Abe child’s normal effort to understand blm-
elf through free self-expression. ......
I believo too In work suitablo to childhood, and that the joy
In doing such work, should como to tho cbllu largely from th
I I b belIov6^1n regularity,! accuracy, punctuality, Industry and
application.^ ^ J)r0|n p^ c fc ce rful obedience, self-control and sclf-
* f believe In Inspiring tho child to choose tho good, the true
and the beautiful, and to contribute lo tho happiness ot otliors
by work and. deed and gift. , . t
I believe that In all those things my example counts for
more than my precept .... , ...... , .
I believe in cultivating the intellect and the will, hut I be-
ievo too In soul culture, and that out of this cultivation comes the
more abundant life, bringing forth tho fruits of the Spirit;* kindness,
entlcncss, Joy, peace, truth, hope, faith, love, revcrenco for God,
respect for age, consideration for each other and thoughtfulness
for nil of God’s lowly creatures.
I believe that tho calling of motherhood is tho holiest and
should lie the happiest of all earth's tasks. ,
I believe that the CbrisJ who was Himself a child born of a
human mother Is tho one never falling source of help for preplexed,
discouraged or wearied mothorhood.
Since to this work. Father, Thou hast called mo, help me |o
give to It all that Thoi) hast given me of inslghi and wisdom and
strength and love and' gentleness and patience and s^lf-forgctfulness.

modern. Her purpose Is not to de
velop prodigies or to go to the ex

3 to 5 years of age better prepara
