"In every way try to please him, at home, at school, at play." This promotes good citizenship in the three most important areas of a child's life. I often remind my own children about this book when they lose their bearing. One way to use this book in an interactive lesson is to have kindergartners draw an activity pleasing to God/Jesus to match each area of life home, school, play.
