Primary Street Student Dec Jan Feb 2025

(Ages 6-8)

As young children grow and advance in early school grades, new lessons and experiences are revealed to them every day. They’re taking the first steps on the journey towards such major achievements as reading, writing, and following Jesus.

This is a vital period in a child’s development, and the lessons they learn now will form the foundation of their later lives. In particular, children in this age group are developing a firmer grasp of the difference between right and wrong. This motivates them toward spiritual growth and helps them realize their need of the Savior. Children in this age group are generally eager to please, so they typically respond well to positive reinforcement and encouragement from their parents and teachers.
