As parents of little ones, we quickly learn how to protect our kids from the dangers of the
world around them. We start teaching them early not to touch the hot stove and to hold
on tight to the hand rail on the stairs. As they get a little older, life gets a little trickier!
How do you deal with a 5 year old who has 5 boyfriends at a time? How do you protect
your little girls from the sexy fashion trends pushed at them at an early age? How do you
teach your little princess what true beauty really is all about?
Meet Dannah Gresh, a mom on mission from State College, PA. She’s a best selling
author, speaker and creator of Secret Keeper Girl Live events. It all started as she tried to
make Bible studies and God’s principles relevant to her young daughters and their
friends.
When asked how things are different for girls growing up today Dannah explained,
“Today’s little girls face peer pressure that we didn’t know until we were in high school.
Research indicates that a little girl who does what is becoming “normal” — wearing
clothes that make her look older, succumbing to boy-craziness, and obsessing about her
appearance — will be at greater risk of body image issues, eating disorders and
depression when she is a teen. These things can also increase the risk of an early sexual
debut.”
Dannah went on to explain what moms can do to help prevent those negative
experiences. “Start early by teaching your daughter that being special in God’s eyes is so
much better than being normal! Help her to become a God-Crazy girl who understands
modesty, purity and true beauty.”
And if you’re a mom like me, you’re thinking, “Oh great, and how exactly do I teach all
of that?” Welcome your new best friend....Secret Keeper Girl – The Crazy Hair Tour!
There are 8 stops in Michigan this September and October. You and your daughter have
got to be there!
At the SKG Crazy Hair Tour – Moms and Tween girls, usually between the ages of 8 and
12 years old, will have the most fun ever digging into God’s word to find out what it has
to say about beauty, modesty and purity and even crazy hair?!?! To make the night one
to remember, they’ll pull out the big guns, oh wait, we mean confetti cannons, balloons,
fashion shows and more! Plus you’ll be ecstatic about the crazy hair machine! You and
your daughter will fall in love with 1 Girl Nation, a new girl band who will start off with
a mini concert and lead worship throughout the night.
