Q: You don’t have to lecture your child on the subject, but definitely mention, in a natural way, that you both have certain luxuries that others do not. Remind your child that no one should take luxuries for granted. Note that your family can give up some non-essentials during Lent because all of you have been so blessed by God — and that you can honor God by giving to those in need. Respect the meaning of Lent yourself and be a good role model for your child. Embrace the rituals you espouse and try to make Lent a period of closeness and reflection for the whole family. Practice what you preach. If you expect your child to sacrifice something meaningful, you need to do the same. For example, if he or she is giving up toys, you can give up social media and computer games. Read the Bible, pray, and talk about Christianity with your child. Find books about Jesus, Lent, and Easter that are written for children, and make the concepts interesting for your child. Consider, for example, acting out key events like the Last Supper or the empty tomb on Easter morning. Encourage your child to make something. As a family, use your hands to craft crosses, crowns of thorns, and other symbolic projects. Paint and decorate Easter eggs together. For inspiration, search for resources online. Fasting does not have to mean tasteless, unappealing food. Prepare something your child likes in order to encourage acceptance of Lent’s symbols and rituals. If they can help you out with the prep or cooking, all the better.  Look for recipes online — you can find options ranging from tuna casseroles to salmon cakes  to veggie hoagies.  And don’t forget about symbolic Lenten treats like soft pretzels and hot cross buns! Let your child decide on an act of kindness and who they would like to perform it for. Giving your child an active role will increase their enthusiasm and the act’s impact upon them.  For instance, maybe you have a shut-in, elderly neighbor.  A younger child could decorate a card, color eggs, and help you prepare some Easter-themed treats to bring over for a visit.  An older kid might help clean up their yard and plant some spring flowers. Let them know that giving to others is even more Christ-like than giving up things yourself. Don’t present Lent as a period of suffering and sacrifice and pain; emphasize that it is a time of reflection and family moments. Teach the importance of enjoying life and the miracles of resurrection and life after death.  Don’t present Lent as: “Let’s take a month and a half to be sad that Jesus died; then we can celebrate his resurrection.” Instead:  “Let’s take this time to slow down and focus on Jesus’ sacrifice for all of us, and to give thanks for the eternal glory it opened up to us.” Teach yourself and your children that Lent is supposed to be about becoming better people. These values should last after the rituals of Lent are over. Keep bringing food to the homeless shelter.  Keep limiting the amount of time you spend on your smartphone.  Keep talking about, reading about, and thinking about Jesus.  Keep spending quality time together.
A: Give thanks together for your blessings. Teach by example. Make spirituality a family affair. Prepare Lenten meals together. Encourage your child to help others. Make Lent seem beautiful and appealing. Do not simply return to your old ways after Easter.

Article: Place these three ingredients in a heavy, medium saucepan. Set the saucepan over medium heat. Heat the sugar mixture on the stove, stirring continuously, until the sugar granules dissolve and the mixture reaches a boil.  This will usually take about 10 minutes. If the mixture reaches a boil but sugar crystals are still present on the side of the pan, cover the pan and continue boiling the syrup for 1 to 2 minutes. During this time, the steam should help wash the crystals away. Alternatively, you can wash down the sides of the pan by scraping them with a wet pastry brush. Continue cooking the syrup mixture over medium heat until your candy thermometer reads the ideal temperature. For soft nougat, the temperature should reach the soft ball stage and read 238 degrees Fahrenheit (114 degrees Celsius). For hard, chewy nougat, the temperature should reach the soft crack stage and read 275 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius).  This will usually take anywhere from 6 to 12 more minutes. When preparing soft nougat, you can actually cook the sugar syrup up to 245 degrees Fahrenheit (118 degrees Celsius). Similarly, you can allow the sugar syrup to reach 300 degrees Fahrenheit (149 degrees Celsius) when preparing hard nougat. If the temperature climbs above your ideal degree range, though, quickly stop the cooking process by sticking the bottom of the pan into your prepared bowl of ice.
