Connection Activity: Pray first and use this as fun with your own Heavenly Father! Take the kids along but focus on Him for some of it! Resist the urge to teach the kids anything. Let Him bring into conversation if He chooses. Play with umbrellas in rain AND in noontime sun. Notice and marvel at the freedom this allows to stay dry and stay shaded! Also notice there are some places umbrellas refuse to go...although they go up and down stairs, over bridges, under awnings, and under trees, they won’t remain open and cover though railings, though playground tunnels, under benches, or though car doors. What places can you discover?

Dannah Gresh A Mom's Guide to Lies Girls Believe & the Truth that Sets Them Free (Chap 1) There is a tree illustration and explanation that is similar to the circles along with a great synopsis of the difference between "common virtue" (doing what is right with false motives) and "true virtue" (doing what is right because it is and "outgrowth of God's Truth planted deep inside the heart).
