"Tell me something awesome about today!"
That is a question I asked my kids
at the end of every day when they
were young!
It opened the door to many wonderful
conversations and I was able to "see"
into the hearts of my precious little ones!

With school starting, this would be a great way to encourage your children to talk about their day with a positive attitude.
"Tell me something awesome about today."
Let them think for a minute, 'good thoughts,' then jot it down on an index card or let them write it out if they're old enough.
(helping the teacher pass out papers, encouraging a friend, sitting beside a lonely child on the bus, etc.)
Date it (month, year) and file it under the number date (1-31).
You'll be creating a beautiful memory file over the years!

Record a Day file box - divider cards |
Using my paper scraps, I created divider cards with number stickers and my Joy's Life, My Hero stamp set; so many encouraging sentiments!
The file card box was made with a re-cycled beverage box!
How do you encourage a positive attitude
in your children?
