404: 3 Ways to Teach Children Gratitude

Author: Cloud10 November 25, 2024 Duration: 29:34
Wouldn’t it be nice if our kids innately felt grateful for all we (and others) do for them? That they naturally expressed gratitude and could see how blessed they are?  Certainly, some kids are more predisposed than others, but it’s been my experience, and I’m guessing yours too, that this doesn’t come naturally to most kids. Instead, gratitude is a skill that needs to be taught and practiced repeatedly.  So the big question is: how do we teach it?  Today’s episode will focus on three actionable, realistic ways to teach your kids gratitude.  Click play NOW to jump in!
