Mother to read or sing the Odes of Bahá'u'lláh to young children before bed

"When the children are ready for bed, let the mother read or sing them the Odes of the Blessed Beauty, so that from their earliest years they will be educated by these verses of guidance."

('Abdu'l-Bahá, from a Tablet - translated from the Persian, Bahá'í Education compilation, no. 75)
"Children of all ages can benefit from the guidance given to mothers by Abdu'l-Baha in which He advises that when the children are ready for bed their mothers should read or sing to them verses of Baha'u'llah so that from their earliest years the children will be educated by these words of the Blessed Beauty."
