Building Blocks of Raising Thankful Children
Steve spoke with Margie Ellisor from KTVI about raising thankful children. The building blocks he suggests are:
- Model empathy for very young children (first three years of life)
- Give the language and words and activities of thankfulness and empathy (4 through 6)
- Provide activities such as family and community involvement for children to experience...such as thank you notes, give old toys to others (elementary school age)
