Podcast 5 - Establishing daily devotions for kids - (Interview, part 2)

This is such a great idea to interview your kids. 3 of my 4 kids are out of the home now and the two that had an established quiet time before they left home have kept up with it and continue to grow in their walk with God (one is one year out and the other is three years out). I think this habit is more important than any other habit we can teach our kids - to go to God on their own. I see a lot of families doing family devotion times - which is nice as well - but this one is more important for their individual walk with God and their growth as Christians. I hope you can get this message out! (Maybe you should try writing an article for Focus on the Family magazine.) 

I didn't start the "you have to have a quiet time" rule each day until my oldest was 16 probably, which was too old to enforce. In the beginning I felt a little funny about it because it made quiet times seems like a duty when it should be a delight but I figured, I make the kids do other things i want them to do for life, why not quiet times? It has become a delight for the three younger kids even though it started out as a duty. (Now to see if this posts - I hope so since it was such a long comment!)
