by Sandy Eastoak

Dharma Family Treasures: Sharing Buddhism with Children (Family & Childcare) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this updated revised second edition of "Dharma Family Treasures," Sandy Eastoak combines previous essays by lay and ordained Buddhist practitioners, children, spiritual teachers, young adults, educators, parents, writers and poets, including Diane Di Prima, Barbara Gates, and Thich Nhat Hanh, with nine new essays by Robert Aitken, Richard Nelson, Jin Harrison, Sandy Eastoak, and others. This revised edition also includes a new section containing playful and educational children's Buddhist songs.

Synopsis:

This anthology explores the challenges and rewards of teaching Buddhist values and meditation practice to children

The family practice of such Buddhist values as compassion and self-reflection has the potential to guide and empower children and parents, as well as foster community. With essays, poems, stories, and songs, Buddhist parents touch on a variety of topics: child rearing as a valid and rich spiritual path, Buddhist holiday ceremonies for kids, sample education programs, and ways to deepen understanding between parents and children.
