Every child wants to be valued.
So try these awesome affirmation ideas with your kids:
*Look children in the eye. Talk to children on their
level. Get on the floor if necessary.
*Reach out and touch. Nudge an elbow. Shake hands. Give a
quick hug around the shoulders.
*Call children by name. Children want to hear their names
spoken with love and kindness.
*Listen to every response. When children give a
questionable response, guide them toward a more appropriate
answer.
*Be a learner too. Share what you're learning with
children. They'll respect you for it.
