How can we easily help our children "be the best that they can be"?
One of the best ways to build a child's self-esteem is to allow them to complete their sentences. As parents, we must remind ourselves the importance of not just "hearing" what our children are saying but actually "listening" to them. It might seem like the difference between the words is subtle, but I promise you, it will add a whole new dimension to communication with your child and setting the foundation for building their self-esteem, self-confidence and self-identity. Listening really means "hearing while paying attention"!This practice of hearing while paying attention and allowing our children to complete their sentences encourages them to express their feelings more readily preparing them to be the best that they can be, with our love and support.
As WILL.I.AM would say on behalf of all our kids ...... "I WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST ME THAT I CAN BE......... AND I'LL KEEP GETTING STRONGER......."
In Joy!
I also wanted to share with all of you that we are working on a brand new look for our website in preparation for the launch of Happy Heart Happy Face. In the last couple of days I have had several people asking for more posts and I promise to post at least once a week and keep you updated with our progress at Tools of Growth. I would also love to hear your comments (link below) or email me with any questions or thoughts: roma@toolsofgrowth.com
