According to the Second Vatican Council’s Dogmatic Constitution on the Church: “The family, is so to speak, the domestic church.” (Lumen Gentium 11) This means that it is in the context of the family that we first learn who God is and to prayerfully seek His will for us.

–United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

The single biggest determining factor in a child’s faith is how the faith is lived out at home, in the “domestic church.” It is in the home that children see the faith lived out. It is where they form their ideas of God, faith, prayer, and right and wrong. The parish’s religious education programs aid this development, but home is where it happens. Parents can use all the resources they can get to learn different ways to present and live the faith and to find answers to the tough questions. Here you can find resources to help answer any questions you have as well as activities to experience with your children. (And don’t forget your Director of Religious Education is a resource, too!)
