Gratitude

Since Thanksgiving is in November I think it's the perfect time to teach children about gratitude and giving thanks in all areas of their lives. I'll be talking more about it in the weeks to come along with activities, tips, tools and suggestions for raising an awareness of the need to appreciate in children. From Election Day and living in a free country where we're able to vote, to Veteran's Day and being grateful to the brave men and women who fight and fought for our right to live a free life, to Thanksgiving and a time to think and contemplate all that we might take for granted during the year.

For starters, if you're taking your children around on Halloween remind them to say thank you and please and talk about how generous it is that people are sharing with them.

Enjoy the day,
