Many blessings to you, Paul, and the wee monkeys. I love EC's name. I have 2 children who are 6 and 3. IMO, as with every religion, how much and how soon you introduce it depends upon how devout you are. We celebrate Christian holidays right along side the Pagan holidays. Both my husband and I were born and raised Catholic, and while we didn't feel that it "fit" us as a belief system, we're not anti... Whichever path you go down,your kids (at least till they're teens, right? LOL)will come along right beside you. For the first few years, "religion" has been about taking extra notice of what Nature gives us, and giving thanks. I teach my kids spell work as I'm cooking- making up little rhymes and chants for good health while I chop veggies, stir soup (always deosil I remind them) and add herbs & spices. I teach them about the power of color (for candle spells, or what have you) by saying, "let's have a yellow day", then dress them in yellow and make up little songs about what yellow means to me. I also let them watch me do tarot readings (if the recipient is ok with that)and ask them what certain cards mean to them. We talk about dreams and what they might mean, and do spells for snow days.

You will totally find your way. If Wicca is an everyday part of your life,the kids will just absorb it.

Continued Good Health and Happiness to you Raven!
