Encouraging Your Child to Give Genuine Thanks

I don’t know about you but I get tired of repeating to my children, “say please” “say thank you”

And when they do say it, their tone of voice is so perfunctory they may as well have not said it – does that sound familiar? 

So I set about discovering how I can support my children to express genuine gratitude and be genuinely polite. i.e. actually feel a sense of happiness.

I made some interesting discoveries along the way and also realised how critical gratitude is as the root to our happiness. Everyone goes on and on about gratitude and gratitude journals but how can you adjust your thinking and how do you actually break it down into a daily practice that actually works and permeates through to your children?

The thing we love the most is hearing from our fabulous community. Some of the greatest insights come directly from you. Leave a comment below.
