“Regard man as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value. Education can, alone, cause it to reveal its treasures, and enable mankind to benefit therefrom.” — Bahá’u’lláh
Children are a precious treasure
Baha’is value children as the most precious treasure of any community, the promise of our future. If children are to develop their true potential, they need spiritual nourishment as well as academic instruction. Everyone is invited to participate in supporting the children.
Baha’i children’s classes (ages 5-11) nurture children by helping them develop spiritual qualities and behaviors that are the foundation of a joyful life. Teachers of Baha’i children’s classes are volunteers, youth and adults who live in the neighborhood where classes are offered. All teachers have had a safety background check.
What does a typical lesson look like?
Baha'i children's classes include a number of different activities: songs, stories, arts, crafts, and drama around the lesson's theme. Themes for younger children are related to a particular virtue or spiritual quality, such as kindness, justice or truthfulness. Lessons in later grades examine a variety of topics, including applications of good conduct and cooperation. Children also learn about nature and history of religion with stories from the world’s great spiritual Teachers. The presentations focus on the common themes of all great religions.
