As some here know, I write catechism curriculum for kids. One persistent question from customers involves methods of teaching children--what are good ways, any creative methods, etc.
We are working on producing a brief video addressing some of these questions, offering helpful hints, etc (some parents have never heard of catechism and doubt that children can really memorize that much, etc).
I've taught long enough to have a few of my own ideas, and I can draw more from a friend who has taught catechism to her children and at a homeschool co-op, but I'd imagine that people here also have many excellent suggestions.
What would you suggest to parents who are thinking of teaching the catechism to their children? or to churches who only teach Sunday School once a week and aren't sure how to go about teaching the catechism in that time frame?
Thanks!
