Como fazer esta atividade
Sit together in a cozy spot during your activity time. Take turns saying one thing you appreciate about each other or about your day together. You might appreciate the game you played, the hug you shared, or how your child tried something new. Help your child name what they enjoyed or appreciated too. Even simple observations count.
Por que funciona
Regular expression of gratitude in family settings enhances parent-child communication quality and emotional intimacy (Watkins et al., 2003). Adults who regularly express appreciation report stronger emotional bonds and higher relationship satisfaction (Emmons & McCullough, 2003). Starting this practice early, even with limited understanding, establishes positive relational patterns that children carry forward.
Dicas para os pais
Start by modeling what appreciation sounds like. Your child will learn by hearing you.
If your child repeats what you said, that's perfectly fine. Repetition helps them learn the pattern of expressing gratitude.
