Humility
Take your pick of some fun activities that help children:
- recognize that everyone has different strengths, and that these are gifts from God
- acknowledge their failings and need of God’s help and forgiveness
- apologize to others, accept advice, and receive compliments graciously.
This lesson also helps address self-centredness, self-righteousness, a know-it-all attitude and poor sportsmanship.
