Oct. 9 – Growing a Kind and Thoughtful Child
Today’s children live in a world where they are bombarded with negative messages, many of which devalue respect for others. To help children grow into responsible, caring adults, parents must be intentional in teaching children how to treat others with compassion, respect and thoughtfulness. Children are taught responsibility when they help with chores at home. But, volunteering together strengthens family bonds, enhances communication, and sends a message to your children that you’re a team! Learn ideas and opportunities for how kids can serve at home and how your family can serve in our community.
Coming up!
