Hey guys, just want to see what you think of this idea…

My daughter is currently 13 years old, almost 14 and when she turns 15, she would like to have a quince (similar to a Sweet Sixteen), anyhow I’m thinking of having her start a page.  On this page, I would ask her to write about church services that she’s attended or streamed online each week and her reaction to the service.  I’m thinking that I will have her write her own entries and that way she can get some feedback from others (besides her mom) on her thoughts and writing technique.  It will also be interesting to see how her thoughts develop over the course of a year.

I’m thinking I might even have her start her own blog, that way besides her posts she can also start a page with quince ideas, themes, pictures that she can share, or maybe that you could share ideas with her.  I was also thinking that it might be interesting if I have her do a report a month on how women live in other countries and what their coming of age rituals are.  What do you guys think?  Have any of you done anything similar to this with your kids?  I think that it will teach her to be more appreciative and more knowledgeable on the overall meaning of what a quince is.
