GGreetings PK Families,
We spend a lot of time talking about feelings in preschool. Feeling thankful or grateful cannot be seen in the same way as many other feelings such as happy, sad, excited, or scared. Asking questions like the ones listed below can help your preschooler begin to understand thankfulness and gratitude.
- Can you think of a person you are happy to be around or who takes good care of you?
- Is there anything in your house that makes you smile or feel good?
- Is there a place you go that makes you feel excited or calm?
In the spirit of gratitude, I want to reiterate how grateful I am to be part of the SELC community. I hope you all get to make memories with with friends and family over the next few days.
