Abstract
The wisdom of the ages recommends that adults heed the spiritual examples of children. This paper explores the evidence of how our adult relationships with children can help us adults in our own spiritual growth. An examination of research on some of the ways children manifest their spirituality, including recent brain research in that area, reveals some of the ways in which children can influence their parents, caregivers and other adults to grow spiritually, especially when the gift is acknowledged and appreciated.
