Still have a question? Contact usOne purchase gives you the full Self-Control unit: the Parent–Teacher Guide and the Student Workbook, including every learner stage and the shared family printables. They are not sold as separate packages on this page.
The workbook includes four flexible learner stages: Little Listeners (under 3), Little (typically ages 3–6), Growing (typically ages 7–11), and Rooted (typically ages 12+). Choose the stage that fits the learner rather than treating the age ranges as rigid placement.
Begin with the shared teaching in the Parent–Teacher Guide, then open the same session in each child’s learner stage. Everyone comes back together around one Scripture truth and one family prayer.
No. Print the guide and only the workbook section that fits each learner. Mixed-age families may use a different stage for each child.
The unit includes six short, open-and-go family sessions. A flexible two-week rhythm is suggested, but families may repeat a session, pause for real-life practice, or spread the unit across several weeks.
