Re: Motherds Day Cards and A JW Child
Ps Ask the parent about any special days that they have as Jws and include them in your planning for the individual child. They have the Memorial coming up where they think alot about Jesus and his qualities.Most Jw children have a Bible story book and a Great teacher book.Ask the parent for copies for your setting.Alot of Jws give gifts when they have 'assembly s' they are special meetings.Alot of Jw children get 'Assembly' presents. I know Jw children who have taken small gifts into school for their class and teacher before their assembly so the child doesnt miss out on givving .Its no different than children givving sweets and treats to their friends on their birthday at home time.Some Jw children get gifts on their parents wedding anniversery aswell.For mothers day - make an 'I love you Mummy' card and get them to give it before mothers day.Just dont write happy mothers day in it. Christmas - Instead of cards with santa on make snow men cards,Winter cards etc etc.Just dont write happy christmas on it. Easter,Stay away from Bunnies and Eggs and do a Spring card.Try contacting your local Kingdom hall of Jehovahs Witnesses,they are open Sundays,Thursday evenings and Tuesday evenings and ask the parents maybe if you could arrange to have a chat with them.If you feel they are not approachable it may be because they are anxious about your reaction. Respecting all faiths means all faiths,not just those that are more well known,it includes those that are maybe a little misunderstood or miss represented. Never make a judgement based on something you dont fully understand ( and im not saying that anyone on here would) or based on the opinions of others. No religion is perfect because no human is perfect.Im just abit worried about forum members who are Jehovahs Witnesses.
