We've streamlined the program to focus on just six values over the course of a year, spending two months on each one. There will be an activity to do as many times as you can over the two-month period as well as a challenge activity to help you dive deeper.
Has this ever happened to you? Your child receives a gift, at a birthday party or at a relative's house at Christmas. He opens it, throwing the wrapping carelessly on the floor, examines it and tosses it down to go to the next one. You see the expression on the giver's face and hurriedly command, "What do you say?." The required "Thank You" comes out in an annoyed, hurried tone, with no eye contact or appreciative body language, and movement toward the next gift continues. With a little bit of instruction and intention, you can help your children be more authentically gracious!
