There are so many things to be thankful for, but it’s human nature to sometimes forget to appreciate what you have. Your little one is no different. You can, for instance, prompt your preschooler to say “thank you” when he receives a storybook from Grandma on his birthday. But the challenge is to help him see why he should be contented with what he has received, instead of that big toy he wants.
That is why it’s important to teach your child the value of gratitude. Being grateful helps children develop a positive attitude and to look on the bright side of life. This is one of the key values – including respect, responsibility honesty and care – you want to impart to your child through character education.
