What if teaching theology to children wasn't as intimidating as it sounds? What if, instead, it was one of the most natural and essential parts of shaping a child's faith? In this episode, Mary Wiley joins us to unpack the idea that theology is simply learning about God—and that kids are not only capable of learning it, but eager to! With warmth and wisdom, Mary shares how parents and ministry leaders can make big truths about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the church both accessible and engaging for young hearts. In this episode, Mary Wiley dives into the heart of why teaching theology to children matters deeply. She reminds us that theology is simply learning about who God is—and that every child deserves to know Him personally and deeply. Mary offers practical tools, insights, and encouragement for both parents and ministry leaders as they teach kids about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the church. With a focus on making theology engaging and understandable, she shows how we can help children build a strong foundation of faith that lasts. This episode is a must-listen for anyone passionate about helping the next generation grow in their understanding of and love for God.

In this episode, which is the second in my series of the foundations of Aware Parenting, I talk about helping children cooperate with toothbrushing. I share about my own journey with my teeth and mouth, and how I passed down some of that trauma to my children, and how that affected their willingness with toothbrushing. I talk about the three reasons why children may not be willing to cooperate with toothbrushing, including trauma related to their mouths, and what we can do to tend to each of those three reasons. I offer suggestions for how to respond to each of those three reasons, including attachment play suggestions.

We all encounter moments that make our hearts race and our confidence waver. For adults, these frightening situations may be occasional challenges, but for children, they're a near-daily experience. The world of a child is filled with first-time encounters – first day of school, first time swimming, first time speaking to a group – each potentially triggering genuine fear. As parents, we witness this courage-building process unfold. Our critical role isn't to eliminate these fears or the situations that cause them, but rather to equip our children with tools to move through them. By acknowledging their feelings while gently guiding them forward, we teach perhaps life's most valuable lesson: fear doesn't have to be the end of the story. When we support our children through these moments of hesitation and uncertainty, we're not just helping them overcome today's challenge – we're building the resilience they'll need for a lifetime of brave steps forward.

MaryAnn highlights key strategies for disclosing difficult truths while prioritizing a child's emotional well-being.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 13.5% of U.S. households were food insecure at some time during 2023. Unfortunately, food-related trauma is a common challenge for many children who have entered the foster care system. Whether it's an aversion to a particular type of food, fear that there won't be enough food, or a tendency to overeat and hoard food, there are many behaviors a child may exhibit as a result of their past experiences. When these behaviors occur, it's important to meet them with curiosity and kindness. Madison Tyler, a foster and adoptive parent who has been a pediatric dietitian for 13 years, is here to help us understand more about a child's relationship with food. Madison and her husband became foster parents in 2017. Over the years, they have welcomed and witnessed reunification for several children. Today, Madison integrates her professional expertise with her personal experience to help families navigate food challenges, build trust, and foster connection around the table. In this episode, you'll hear strategies you can use to respond to some of the most common challenges foster and adoptive parents encounter around food, what a Harvard study says is the single most important factor in determining a person's health and longevity, practical tips for helping your child develop a positive relationship with food, and much more.

Protecting my kids from the dangers in the online world is a high priority for me. My son is 13, and I'm still holding off giving him a phone, even though he insists he's the only one in eighth grade who doesn't have one.  (And I want to say here that it's okay if you have a different view on what's best for your child, so no judgment on when you decide to make a phone available to them!!)  When he does get a phone in the next year or two, he will definitely have limits and filters to help him navigate his phone safely. But unfortunately, we all know that even the most adept filters and limits aren't foolproof. In fact, the best internet filter of all will come from Noah! The only way I can fully protect him from online danger is to help him develop his own internal filter.   My guest, Emily Jones, is a writer, speaker, author, and mother of 5. She and her husband Dave co-founded Family Tech University, which is a movement dedicated to helping parents prepare their children for today's tech in new and powerful ways. Emily shares with us today how to help our kids use technology wisely as they develop their own internal filters.
