Re: Christian holidays . . . to celebrate or not to celebrate and how?
Wow, I should have started this thread earlier.
I'd like to try to incorporate Pagan celebrations into our lives but a) I am so lazy about things of that nature its down right embarrassing and b) is it raising Rowan Pagan? Because I'm mostly against indoctrinating kids into religions before they are old enough to choose what they want to believe. I suppose just doing earth centred holiday activiities (the wreaths, etc) wouldnt be so much indoctrinating him as giving him a rough foundation. I dont know. When do we start doing things like this? Rowan's only 4 months old . . . do we wait until he's old enough to understand that we're doing something special or do we start now to get ourselves into the "habit" so to speak? Its all so confusing. I wonder if there are books on raising Pagan kids? Perhaps I should have a look at them for some rough ideas (without being too overbearing about what he should and should not believe of course).
Dont mind me, I just woke up and am wont to ramble. The above mentioned boy is now yelling at me so I should probably go . . .
