Marly and Mia and the Cousins Peace Takes a Pause
Sometimes peace begins with one small pause.
Marly and Mia are back for another heartwarming adventure in the Growing with the Spirit series. This time, the cousins are learning about peace and discovering that peaceful moments do not always happen on their own. Sometimes we have to stop, breathe, listen, pray, and choose a peaceful response.
When Milo the Monkey needs a little help, Marly, Mia, Nana G, and the cousins discover what it means to be peacemakers. Through everyday moments that young children can understand, they learn that God can give us peace even when things around us feel busy, frustrating, uncertain, or out of control.
With gentle faith-based lessons, colorful characters, and simple examples for young children, Peace Takes a Pause helps families talk about handling big feelings, calming down before reacting, helping others, solving disagreements with kindness, and trusting God when we feel worried.
The story continues into special activity and discussion pages designed to help children practice what they have learned. Children and families can enjoy a Peace Picnic in the Garden, create a Peace Jar, say a simple Prayer for Peace, complete the 7 Days of Peace Challenge, explore ways to Be a Peacemaker, and discover Bible verses about the peace God gives us.
Peace Takes a Pause is especially suited for children ages 2 to 7 and works well for bedtime reading, family devotionals, Sunday school, Christian classrooms, homeschool lessons, and quiet time together.
Young readers will learn that peace does not mean everything around us has to be perfect. Peace can begin in our own hearts when we remember that God is with us.
Throughout the Growing with the Spirit series, Marly, Mia, their cousins, and their lovable animal companions are discovering the Fruit of the Spirit one adventure at a time.
Love begins to grow.
Joy makes a splash.
And now Peace Takes a Pause.
Come along with Marly and Mia as another part of their Growing with the Spirit garden begins to bloom and discover how one little pause can make room for a whole lot of peace.
