How do you teach a 4 year old that God is real? It was pretty easy to "teach" him Santa Clause is real without even trying, so why do I struggle so much with this task?
So far Mickey knows that God made everything, including him, so I am going to take that and run with it. Next week we are going to focus on the 5 senses, namely how we can "sense" God in His creation. I have some activities which I will upload later on the resources page as well.
