Teaching Listening well at a full table

Truly listening to good advice - and letting it sink into your heart - helps you grow wise.

  • What is the difference between just hearing someone and really listening to them?
  • Who is someone wise in your life that you can listen to and learn from? What have they taught you?
  • When is self-control hardest for you - at the snack table, with toys, or somewhere else? What could help?
