The Love’s Cradle Leader’s Guide includes all 22 two-hour sessions of the Love’s Cradle Program as used in the Building Strong Families project in Texas. This includes the initial eight two-hour sessions that combine training in RE skills with discussion of issues around new parenting, the supplemental curriculum for Building Trust, the Meaning of Marriage, Talking About Finances, and Complex Family Relationships, and two sessions of advanced RE skills. Written in an out-of-the-box format in 22 two-hour sessions, each segment includes an “”At-a-Glance”” overview, list of materials, behavioral learning objectives, planning notes, detailed explanations of each concept, directions for each activity, estimated time for each activity, and a copy of each handout used. The Leader’s Guide also includes special guides for coaching couples, handling home assignments, and schedules for program variations. The “”Blue Pages”” for each RE concept include additional information about each RE skill which new leaders can study to develop their own way of explaining each skill. A curriculum resource.
