Appreciation – Part 3
Sometimes because of the busy-ness of your days, simple things can get forgotten. Appreciation is one of them.
How many times do you take certain things or actions that your child does for granted?
Let your child know that you appreciate it when he puts his toys away without being asked, cleans her teeth without being prompted or sets or clears the table without so much as a word from you? You can never say these words enough and they can help your child towards good behaviour.
Appreciation of each other and what you have together can go a long way.
Yes, you can say thank you and those words are appreciated as well.
It’s showing your child that you recognise the value and quality of what he’s done. He will be keen to do more good behaviour to have more positive responses and appreciation.
What do you appreciate about your child?
