Conscience can be encouraged early in a child’s life by asking the right questions within teaching moments, and by having children introspect the effects of their behavior on themselves and/or on another person. It sounds like a heavy task, but their are many miraculous teaching moments of questioning, guidance and role modeling that can serve to help children understand how to be the best version of themselves as a human being in our world. There are ways to point out that their actions in word, thought or deed just hurt another person’s feelings and hurt their own core. Stories and songs can have tremendous impact in our tools for teaching conscience, and I look forward to coming to your area with my character-building creative arts concerts in order to help reinforce your work with children in terms of conscience, respect, acceptance, inclusion, tolerance and non-bullying inner and outer behavior.
